Day 1: Arrival, transfer to hotel.
Day 2: Tour Península de Valdés Full Day
In this all day tour, we will visit the Protected Natural Area of Peninsula Valdés. We will find the tourist town of Puerto Pirámide, where we will embark, between the months of June to December to go whale watching (navigation not included and optional); and between the months of January and March, sailing is offered to spot sea lions, various birds and occasionally dusky dolphins. Then we visit the Lobería de Punta Pirámides, a reproductive colony of sea lions and we will observe their habitat and the panoramic views from the viewpoints of the place. Continuing with the tour, we will visit an elephant and sea lion roost called Punta Cantor, located at the eastern end of the peninsula. Then, depending on the time of year and the distribution of coastal fauna, you can continue to Punta Norte, a sea lion roost located in the extreme northeast. Finally, in the afternoon, we will return after having travelled more than 400 km (half gravel road and half asphalt), having had an intense and pleasant day.
Day 3: Snorkeling with sea lions
This experience is not to be missed because it is unique in the world and because of the fascination it entails, is snorkeling or diving with small sea lions in the Punta Loma Natural Reserve. After half an hour of a beautiful navigation to the Reserve, we will enter the water to live a unique experience in the world, since there is no record in any other sea lion farm in the world where animals approach and come into contact with people as they do here. We will be in the place for a maximum of 45 minutes according to what the Reserve authorities establish, playing with juveniles, females and puppies. It takes place every day of the year.
