Located north of the Península Valdés Protected Natural Area, Estancia San Lorenzo is home to the largest continental colony of Magellanic penguins in the world. Since the 1990s, hundreds of thousands of these adorable animals have chosen its shores to reproduce and molt annually. In addition to this fascinating penguin population, Estancia San Lorenzo offers visitors the opportunity to enjoy an authentic Patagonian lamb barbecue lunch, a culinary delight typical of the region that adds a genuine touch to the experience.
During the 160 kilometers that separate Estancia San Lorenzo from Puerto Madryn, we will have the opportunity to spot incredible animals such as guanacos, foxes, skunks, maras, and rheas, among others.
El tour culmina con una visita al Área Natural Protegida de Punta Norte, hogar de una enorme colonia de Lobos Marinos de dos pelos y Elefantes Marinos del Sur. Aquí también podremos encontrar una gran variedad de aves playeras y, con algo de suerte, avistar al depredador tope del océano: la orca.
