Punta Loma Sea Lion Reserve
Punta Loma Sea Lion Reserve Review
Some 600 South American sea lions lounge on the shore below a tall, crescent bluff at Punta Loma, 17 km (10½ mi) southeast of the city. Aim to visit during low tide. You can reach the reserve by car (follow signs toward Punta Ninfas); by bicycle, if the wind is not too strong; or by taxi—expect to pay about 150 pesos for the return trip including a 45-minute stay.
- Address: Puerto Madryn, Chubut
- Cost: 35 pesos
- Hours: Visit during low tide---check local paper or tourism office for tide schedule. Open 8--8.
- Location: Puerto Madryn
