Travel to Uruguay: La Paloma, Cabo Polonio and Lighthouse Santa Maria

Posted by at 22:47 Read our previous post

In Rocha, Uruguay is the lagoon of the same name, declared National Park in 1977. The lake occupies about 72 km2, with a strip of sand that separates the sea, which opens periodically.
This natural habitat is sighted over 200 species of birds among which we highlight the Chilean flamingo and black-necked swan. Beside the Lagoon Otter is of great importance for the diversity of its fauna. There you can see swans, herons, ducks, Bigua and screamers. At about 14 km west National Park is an important viewpoint Lakeside, which lends much to the bird watching.

Aspects of place:
In the spa La Paloma, Rocha Province, peaceful resort of the Eastern Republic of Uruguay, stayed at the Portobello Hotel, facing the sea and its own beach. The city is remarkable for its beauty, exceptional quality of life, given the safety and proximity to all places. Their roofs, built by a plant material are extremely striking because of its special shape. People not in a hurry, walk quietly through life. The main charm of the resort are its beaches, each with its own personality.

Cape Polonius:
Returning to Route 10 Cape we find Polonius, a very attractive, rugged, rustic and cozy. Clean and perfect nature invites you to tour Cape its huge dunes on foot, horseback or four wheel drive jeep. The beaches are wide, fine sand, with waves of large size and pale green water and high transparency. This makes them ideal for swimming or diving.
