Puerto Madryn and Punta Loma Shore Excursion

This Protected Area is the only permanent refuge for sea lions, unlike the sea lion colonies of the Valdes peninsula, which are farmed or wintered. We can also observe medium-rise cliffs falling into the sea and extensive pebble beaches. From a ravine, there is a viewpoint from which we can observe the activity that dominates the colony according to the time of year (formation of harems, coupling and births). Breeding season begins in November, at which time males struggle to form their harem and mate. In the month of December and until the end of January the little ones are born. In this refuge also inhabits a colony of birds, rock cormorants that nest in clay walls, as well as South American gulls, among other seabirds and land birds

On this city tour of Puerto Madryn, we will tour the most emblematic points of the city. We start at Plaza San Martín, where we will learn a little about the local history. We pass by the coastline, enjoying the views of the New Gulf and its beaches. We will also see the Pampa Azul Ecocentre, a space dedicated to marine conservation, and the historic Punta Cuevas neighbourhood, with the first Welsh homes from 1865. We will enjoy a panoramic view from the Tehuelche monument, which offers views of the city and its surroundings, before passing through the industrial and fishing park. An ideal tour to know the history, culture and nature of Puerto Madryn in a few steps.
