Departure from Hotel in the morning for an excursion to Valdés Peninsula. Entrance to it by Itsmo Ameghino and stop in the Interpretation centre. Excursion goes on to Pirámides Port, where navigation in small boats can be made to see Whale specimens between June and December, or elephant seals or even Dolphins during the rest of the year (optional.) Later, we will leave for Caleta Valdés where we will have lunch (optional) and we will see sea elephants. After lunch, we
will go to the southern portion of the Peninsula, known as Punta Delgada to see the elephant seals. On our way back, we will go past the Salinas and we will have the chance to observe the terrestrial fauna, and in case we fail to sail in the morning for bad weather, we will go past Pirámides Port for sighting. Arrival late in the afternoon in Puerto Madryn. Within October and March an extension to North End of the Peninsula can be made. There is a private Penguin colony there, smaller, but more personalised than Punta Tombo (a good option for that passenger who has little time available).

Departure from hotel in the morning for an excursion to Punta Tombo Penguin colony. After a 200 km drive, we will get into this natural reserve to walk near the nests of such a nice species. A big group of penguins in the beach will be observed from a cliff. In the afternoon we will arrive in Trelew City where we will make a short city tour to historical and important places of this fully commercial town. Stop at the Paleontologic Museum and visit (optional). Then, we will go to Gaiman Colony, where the exquisite Welsh tea can be tasted (optional). Arrival in Puerto Madryn
late in the afternoon.

This beach is 20 km away from Puerto Madryn. Every year, mother whales and their breeding get here looking for peaceful waters and because of the coast slope, they can stay at 20 or 30 metres from them. Thus, we can watch them from land. It works the same way than June to November sighting.

Departing from Puerto Madryn southwards, and skirting the coast, we will pass different beaches. The first of them is Kaiser Beach, which ends in a big dune where sandboard is practised. After touring other beaches we will reach Paraná Beach where the top of sunken Folias Ship will be appreciated. It is ideal for snorkelling or diving. After 20 km we will arrive at Punta Loma where we will watch an elephant seal colony from a watchtower.

It is a half-day excursion, usually departing after 2.30 p.m. Locations from the Low Valley of Chubut River are visited, starting from Rawson (Capital of Chubut Province), at 17 km from Trelew. Afterwards, the excursion goes on to Rawson Port, where fishing ships arriving at the pier can be seen. At this spot, Rio Chubut’s waters meet the sea. Unión Beach follows. It is a seaside village with a 2 km-length beach, where smooth pebbles are abundant. These beaches, differently from Puerto Madryn and Puerto Pirámide, extend at open sky, and they are part of Bahía Engaño. Later, Trelew is passed and at 15 km eastwards from it stands Gaiman, a typically Welsh colony where, apart from appreciating its culture and landscape it is possible to taste Welsh tea (tea served with a variety of cakes and tarts as well as scones and home-made bread). Return to Puerto Madryn at approximately 7 p.m..
