Itinerary
We’ll be waiting for you at the Port of Puerto Madryn to start our excursion to Península Valdés. Our first stop will be at the Istmo Carlos Ameghino Interpretation Center, where you'll learn about the peninsula's flora, fauna, geology, and historical events. From the panoramic viewpoint, you’ll enjoy impressive views of Golfo Nuevo, San José, and Isla de los Pájaros. Depending on the time of year, weather, and tides, we’ll visit points of interest such as Caleta Valdés, Punta Cantor, and Punta Norte. Here, you’ll be able to observe elephant seals, penguins, and sea lions, and you’ll have the option to enjoy lunch. In some seasons, you may even spot orcas in action. If time permits, we’ll also visit a nearby penguin colony or the sea lion reserve in Punta Norte. If conditions don’t allow for a visit to Punta Norte, we’ll head to Punta Delgada, to visit a historic lighthouse and an elephant seal colony. Finally we’ll return to the meeting point at the Port of Puerto Madryn.

About Puerto Madryn
Puerto Madryn is a Patagonian port on a wide, sheltered gulf, and the starting point for whale watching and for penguin and sea lion colonies.
Puerto Madryn faces the calm Golfo Nuevo on the Atlantic coast of Chubut province, a seaside town of broad beaches and a long waterfront promenade. Welsh settlers landed on this shore in 1865, and the valley towns of Gaiman and Trelew to the south still keep that heritage. The town itself is small and relaxed, with diving, sailing and sea views drawing most people outdoors.
Top-ranked sights in Puerto Madryn: Punta Tombo, Playa El Doradillo.
