Overview

The Punta Tombo tour is a unique opportunity to walk among thousands of Magellanic penguins in their natural habitat. This reserve offers an up-close experience with these fascinating birds as they nest, care for their chicks, and waddle freely around you.

The journey begins with a 2.5-hour drive from Puerto Madryn to the Punta Tombo Nature Reserve, crossing the vast Patagonian steppe. Upon arrival, you will walk along a 1.5 km trail (3 km round trip), following designated paths that take you through the heart of the penguin colony. Here, you will have the rare chance to witness these incredible birds up close as they go about their daily activities. After exploring the reserve, we start our 2.5-hour return journey back to Puerto Madryn, bringing home unforgettable memories of this incredible wildlife experience.

This tour is a must for anyone visiting Patagonia, offering an authentic and immersive encounter with one of nature’s most extraordinary spectacles.

Activity itinerary

Punta Tombo
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
Punta Tombo is one of the most important wildlife reserves in Argentina and home to the largest Magellanic penguin colony in South America. Located on the Atlantic coast of Patagonia, this unique reserve extends over 3,000 hectares and welcomes more than a million penguins each year during the breeding season, from September to April. The landscape is characterized by vast, open steppe and a rugged coastline, providing the perfect environment for penguins to nest and raise their chicks. Visitors can walk along designated trails that allow them to observe the penguins up close as they go about their daily activities—digging burrows, feeding their young, and waddling between the land and the sea. This protected reserve is not only a spectacular destination for nature lovers but also an important conservation area, helping to preserve the fragile ecosystem that supports these incredible species.
