We set out from Puerto Madryn at around 7:30/8:00 hours after having picked up passengers at their hotels. We visit Puerto Pirámides where you can go whale-watching (from late-May to mid-December).

Once the whale high-season is over, we replace such activity with the visit to the sea-lion colony, where we see cormorant nests and we go dolphin-watching.

At Punta Delgada, we go down to the beach to get near the sea-elephants that visit our coasts all year round. Finally, we go to Caleta Valdés where we also go sea-elephant- watching and, occasionally, sea-lion-watching.

We set out very early for Puerto Pirámides in order to go whale–watching. We’d rather get on board very early in the morning looking for the best weather conditions. So in case it happens otherwise, we have a second chance during the afternoon.

Once on land again, we drive to San Lorenzo farm. Here, you find the largest penguin rookery on Península Valdés. At noon, we have “asado”, homemade empanadas and salads for lunch all of which tickle the palate of the most demanding gourmet.
In the afternoon, we visit Caleta Valdés and Punta Delgada and we go down the cliffs to the beach to walk close to the elephant-seals.

On the way back to the city in the evening, we can see guanacos, rheas, foxes, maras, armadillos, skunks, and hares.

The dream of any Patagonia lover is to spend the night at the countryside hotel Faro Punta Delgada or at one of the farms on the Península such as Rincón Chico, La Elvira o La Ernestina.
