Today, we will pick you up early in the morning at your hotel to visit the Peninsula Valdés Protected Natural Area, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO IN 1999.

After an hour of travel, we will arrive at the ecological village of Puerto Pirámides. Here, those who wish can embark for the traditional whale watching navigation (not included) between the months of June and November, or Sea Lions and Cormorants between the months of December and March.

If choosing to include the Whales Watching Navigation Puerto Pirámide is the only place in Península Valdés where this experience can be done. The whale watching trip starts going along the coast in both directions and then getting one or two miles into the sea, to get in touch with the Southern Right Whales. The first stop is generally at La Lobería (sea lion colony). The sailing along the coast allows one to also watch many cormorant colonies. We will continue our navigation to meet the whales. Once we meet them, magic will start. The boat will stop the engines and silence will begin to reign, interrupted only by the sounds of the sea and the occasional bird. It will be a unique moment where, if we are lucky, we will be able to see them very close to us. The estimated sailing time will be 1:30 hs depending on the time of year, weather conditions and the number of animals in the area. Those who remain on land will be able to visit the picturesque Puerto Piramides town and its beaches

We will continue touring the southern part of the Peninsula, crossing wide landscapes of grasslands and undulations, passing through the Salinas Grande and Chica, and outside Punta Delgada, which constitutes the southern end of the peninsula. We will continue to Punta Cantor to admire the Atlantic coast and the fascinating geological formation known as Caleta Valdés. These beaches are usually inhabited by southern elephant seals, depending on the time of year. Depending on the season and the availability of marine fauna, we can replace the southern area of Las Salinas and Caleta Valdés with Punta Norte.

From there we will start our return making a stop at the Carlos Ameghino Interpretation Center, a compendium of the natural wealth of the peninsula. During the excursion we will have great chances to observe terrestrial wildlife, such as guanacos, rheas, foxes, maras, armadillos and skunks.
