Puerto Madryn Attractions
|
|
The city of Puerto Madryn lies on the shores of Golfo Nuevo, in one of the most sheltered places of the Patagonian coast. Puerto Madryn lays close to a major nature reserve with a wide variety of sea birds and mammals. A plethora of sports are available including windsurfing for those who enjoy defying the Patagonian winds.
Founded by Welsh settlers in 1886, its street names confirm the city's origins. The city grew around railway and port activities and currently has a population of around 60,000. Despite modernization, Puerto Madryn has not succumbed to the gaudiness of other lake district destinations.
The deep water port is one of the best in Argentina and cruise-ships routinely dock here.
