The beach!!! This is not just any quiet beach. It is a good sized city about 400km (250mi) south of Buenos Aires. It is the largest city on the Atlantic costal strip of beaches and fishing towns in Eastern Argentina. There is a busy casino that draws many "porteños"(B.A. residents) for vacations year ...

En el fin día, nosotros fuimos a la Buenos Aires otra vez. Esta tiempo, nosotros fuimos a la playa, Mar del Plata. La Playa esta a muchos kilometros de largo. Es lo muy famoso y popular. Fuimos bronceado y nadando en el mar. Para almuezo, nosotros fuimos al restaraunte Heladeria Necochea. Era lo muy bueno. Te recomiedo que tu comprar un sandwich o un hamberguesa. Era delicioso! Tiene lo muchos dulces, helado, y chocolate!!! Despues almuerzo, tomemos un taxi al aeropuerto!

... the town itself was almost desert. The season was over, more than half of the stores were closed, nobody in the streets, it was really strange. And there's nothing to do outside of the beach, which is covered with little sunshades for which you had to pay, so nothing very interesting. I also spent half a day looking for postcards without finding any. Let's just say that after a long walk on the waterfront I had nothing else to do, so I took the bus again.

... Super experience donc et super rencontres encore une fois, meme si je commence a sentir les limites du CouchSurfing, puisque tu es finalement toujours contraint de suivre le rythme et les envies de la personne qui t'accueille.... Enfin, je trouve tout de meme ca beaucoup plus enrichissant que de rester avec toujours les meme british des Hostels sur le Gringo Trail (ou chemin type que suivent tous les gringos au travers de l'amerique du sud). Il ...

Don´t even think about coming to a nice and sandy beach when you come to Mar Del Plata before mid January. I would say you can expect a desert full of unbrellas with noon on the beach. But the beach walk is nice and amazing view. Make sure to check out the seals on the port where the wreck ships are. They definitely worth the visit. Also try any of the ...

... already in bed by then. Met Binx for lunch on Thursday and did some non-beach stuff; the museo del mar with it´s amazing shell collection, shelves and shelves of them! And then the contemporary art museo housed in a massive Swiss looking building. Binx went for a swim in the sea (bbrrrrr) whilst I read my book (Salman Rushdie´s Midnight´s Children) and drank more coffee. We then parted ways, a went back to the hotel, before meeting again for dinner ...

We Said:<br><br>A flight from Santiago over the Andes brought us to Buenos Aires. The next morning we headed south to the resort town of Mar del Plata. We will be going back to Buenos Aires at the end of our journey around South America, but we figured we'd like to see a bit more of Argentina than just the big city. Our bus ride took us ...

... Miles off of the port of Mar del Plata. At 1812 we entered the environmental protection area for the Rio de la Plata. Before entering this area we ensured that all our overboard discharges were closed to comply with the strict regulations. For the remainder of the day we continued on our northeasterly track towards Uruguay, passing over the shallow banks that provide great fishing areas."
