Full Day Punta Tombo Penguin Paradise

About this activity

A half-million Magellanic penguins are waiting for you in Punta Tombo, South America’s largest penguin colony.

This tour begins with a two-hour drive to the Punta Tombo peninsula in the Argentinean province of Chubut. There you will find hundreds of thousands of Magellanic penguins.

As you walk along the trail inhabited by penguins on both sides, you will be able to observe the different phases of these birds’ lives. Because of the proximity of the path to the nests, visitors may enjoy and learn from the penguin behavior. The path has benches for visitors to be able to rest and enjoy the view in this isolated place.

After this once-in-a-lifetime experience, the tour returns to Puerto Madryn and your ship.
