Wildlife Watching
One of Patagonia’s major mainland Magellanic penguin colonies, set in a landscape where the Patagonian steppe meets the Atlantic Ocean.
Overview
Punta Tombo is one of Patagonia’s key destinations for observing Magellanic penguins. Along marked trails, visitors can explore the coastal steppe among nesting areas and penguins moving through a landscape where land and sea form part of the same ecosystem. The experience goes beyond wildlife watching. It offers the opportunity to observe natural behaviours, understand different stages of the breeding cycle, and appreciate the value of a protected area dedicated to the conservation of the species and the biodiversity associated with this environment.
