The village is based on the tourism, and therefore most of the businesses there are connected to the "whale-business". Don't expect anything fancy, as it is far far away.... But the surroundings offer many experiences, so absolutely a place to go for the animals and to be away from the city-life.
Its such a nice little town and they got a unique thing in the whole wide world. Whales, you can be as close as 4 meters from the creature, they got a quiet friendly community, they all share resources most of the times, nice pubs in the evening where u can find the locals there.
Nos gustó la hospitalidad y a predisposición de los lugareños, el poder llevar a nuestra mascota, los paisajes, y la iglesia que tiene sus puestas abiertas las 24 horas. Llegamos desde lejos, a conocer y pudimos hacerlo dentro de nuestras posibilidades.Lo que NO nos gustó es que en el pueblo no hay gomería, y ante nuestra consulta, la respuesta fue. "tendría que hablar con los bomberos". Respuesta desafortunada, ya que muchos de los circuitos turísticos para realizar son por caminos de ripio.
Me encantó la playa, porque es enorme, con acantilados, y valvas de moluscos enterrados en bloques de tierra y arena que forman los acantilados. Es un lugar maravilloso.
This is the best place to be close to the action - whale watching, Punta Norte, the local sea lion colony. Puerto Madryn is not a pretty town and an hour away. If you stay in Puerto Piramides you can do whale watching at a moments notice, depending on the weather and the light for the best photos. It's a very small town and when the weather turns there's not much to do but eat and relax. Not so bad!
Small, friendly and quiet village from where the whale tours start various times per day. Perfect for 1 or 2 nights. Two or three nice restaurants with good quality food and a very nice accommodation called Del Nomade Hosteria Ecologica.
The best choice if you are going to visit Peninsula de Valdez is to sleep here. You are just inside the Park, near everything interesting. Each time you get inside this zone you have to pay a tax but if you are inside, you pay just once. Whales tours, Punta Caleta, Faro Delgado and different places are the things you visit at Valdez. And you are already there! Avoiding the hour and a half that you have to Puerto Madryn. Few places to eat different choices and good places to rest is ehat you can find in Piramides. I stayed at Las Restingas! Was incredible. Hotel and restaurant! Both very good! TheLittle town is enchanting! I stayed three nights and really had an incredible experience!
Puerto Pirámides, Province of Chubut, Patagonia Argentina is one-of-a kind place!The entrance looks like a pyramid, that´s why it´s called this way.The beach is huge! If you like walking , you will certainly enjoy walking by the sea, early in the morning!I highly recommend to go down the beach late in the afternoon to experience the best sunset ever, especially in summer!The Little town is friendly and lovely! If you visit Puerto Pirámides from June to December, you shouldn´t miss whale watching! Magic!Unforgettable experience! Cannot describe it with words!Enjoy as much as I did!Cheers!
Little cozy town. Laid back and with excellent restaurants. A lot of things to do. Rent a car in Puerto Madryn, because there is a lot to explore on the pensinsula!
Piramides is the perfect place if you want to explore the national park on the peninsula. The beaches are glorious. The largest sea lion colony is within walking distance of the centre. You can go diving, kayaking, canoeing, walking, on boat excursions and more. At certain times of year you can see whales in the bay. It's just wonderful...
