Activity itinerary

Playa El Doradillo

  • 4h
Travelers will be picked up from their accommodations in Puerto Madryn and taken to the beaches of El Doradillo, a protected natural area located just 15 km from the city. These calm and shallow waters are the perfect place for Southern Right Whales to give birth and stay close to their calves. Thanks to the unique characteristics of the coastline, whales can often be seen just 15 to 20 meters from the shore, sometimes even allowing visitors to hear their breathing, creating a truly unforgettable experience. During the excursion, different beaches and viewpoints will be visited depending on tides and whale activity to ensure the best possible whale watching conditions. There will also be time to walk along the beach, take photos, and enjoy the Patagonian landscape.
