Playa Yoaquina - Puerto Madryn

Playa Yoaquina - Puerto Madryn

Roberto Ingledew
Puerto Madryn is in Chubut province, the gateway to exploring the area, the Welsh speaking communities and the wildlife of Peninsula Valdes, famous for whale watching opportunities.

From the look of these sunbathers, you'd never guess this beach is in Argentina's northern Patagonia.

"The transparency of the calm deep waters and its varied fauna make it an ideal place for subaquatic sports fans, among them lovers of scuba diving. Because of that Puerto Madryn is considered the Argentine capital of subaquatic activities."
