April 14, 2022 Christa Meece

Puerto Madryn is protected by the Golfo Nuevo, which is formed by Península Valdés and Punta Ninfas, and is one of the most sheltered places on the Patagonian coast. With five kilometers of beaches bordering the city, Puerto Madryn is the gateway to many other attractions in Argentina. Top among them is Valdes Peninsula Nature Reserve, a UNESCO heritage site since 1999.

Playa El Doradillo

Reviewed By valentinagioiosa

Puerto Madryn is a really special place for me. It is a beautiful city where you can go in summer or in winter and you’ll have interesting things to do. In summer you can enjoy the beach and go to see the penguins, the killer whales or the dolphins and in winter you can go to see the whales. My favourite season to go is in winter i love to go to “El Doradillo” beach and just sit there watching the sea and the whales. And also there is a coffee shop called "Quemehuencho" they do the best churros in the world, if anyone goes to Puerto Madryn they should try them, you won't regret!

The Town of Gaiman

Reviewed By jobenn9936 - Murrells Inlet, United States

This city and the area in general was settled in the 1850s by Welsh immigrants, and while a modern small town it still has a few cold structures and cultural attraction we saw as part of a cruise ship tour. Had afternoon tea at the Welsh Tea House and had a short city tour. Of US H iui storic note, there is a hotel in the city where Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid stayed around 1908 before traveling to Boliva.
