Punta Tombo Trip + Dolphin Spotting

At the scheduled time, we will collect you from your hotel in Puerto Madryn and proceed south to the port of Rawson.

At the port, a boat will be ready to take you into the open seas to observe the Patagonian dolphins. For about an hour and a half, we will drift along the Atlantic Ocean watching these mammals perform their acrobatic leaps.

Afterward, we will continue our journey south for approximately 65 miles to reach the Punta Tombo Natural Reserve. This location is home to the largest continental colony of Magellanic penguins globally.

Our tour begins at the Interpretation Center, where you will learn various facts about the penguins. In summer, the colony exceeds one million individuals.

We will then explore the 2 miles of wooden walkways along the coastline, where you can observe penguins, other bird species, and their nests.

After the tour, we will return to the vehicle for your transfer back to your hotel in Puerto Madryn, with a total trip duration of 10 hours.

Important information

While dolphins are common in the area, please note that the animals are unpredictable. We cannot guarantee the number we will see on the day of your trip.
