Our first stop will be the villa de los pulperos, where you will learn the unique method used to catch the world's tiniest octopus. Next, we will head to the picturesque Piedras Coloradas beach, where you can partake in an exhilarating sandboarding session. Following this thrilling activity, we will proceed south along the scenic Pulperos route.
Our next destination will be El Buque beach, where we will refuel with a delightful Patagonian asado. Enjoy a hearty feast including chorizos, lamb, salad, bread, wine, and water. Once revitalized, we'll venture to the coastal area of El Sótano to observe the captivating tidal movements. Just a short distance away lies the charming Cañadón de las Ostras, where you will uncover marine fossils dating back over 20 million years!
Continuing on our journey, we will reach the renowned Fuerte Argentino, an impressive Patagonian plateau nearly 4 miles wide. After taking in the breathtaking surroundings, we will head towards the edge of these plains for an unforgettable snorkeling experience in the beautiful Loma Blanca lagoon.
