Punta del Este

  • hace 2 semanas

Where is Punta del Este?If you’re looking to sit back, tan, eat in some fancy restaurants and not do much else, then Punta del Este is the place for you. It’s where the rich of South America come for their holidays and the prices here reflect this compared with other places we’ve been.

Attraction

There are beautiful (and busy) beaches, clean waters and multiple restaurants to choose from. As well as that, the marina is a pretty glamorous place to spend some time, particularly at sunset for amazing views. There are nearby beaches within cycling distance (or a bus hop away if you weren’t up to the exercise) and an island full of sea lions. Basically, you’re here to relax and enjoy the sun.The sunset st the marina.

Activity
Feeling as though we weren’t up for much exertion, we didn’t do a lot here. We wondered the town, which didn’t take long, visited some local sites of interest and ate a lot. Los Dedos Playa Blanca, a beach statue, draws a lot of attention, but you won’t be missing out if you don’t see it.Los Dedos, Playa Blanca.

Restaurant
Being typical English tourists, we were very excited at the prospect of enjoying British fish and chips at Fish and Chips restaurant. We ordered, devoured and left feeling very happy and very full. Worth a visit as they had a variety of options.Traditional Tastes
A popular dessert in Uruguay is flan with dulce de leche. I have had it before, so it’s not necessarily a new thing to try, but I’ll definitely be having it again!
Lesson Learned

All beach-side restaurants pump up the price on their meals so that you pay for the view. Our best meals were either along the main road, Avenida Juan Gorlerio (Calle 22), or on the side streets.
Another gorgeous sunset.
