An amazing venue in the vast salt flats area if rather windy the evening we visited. The flamingoes were a delight but rather difficult to photograph as they were eating all the time!
Interesting walk through the salt flats and watching Andean and Chilean Flamingos strut their stuff. The interpretive centre is also interesting as is the lifecycle of the waterborne shrimps which inhabit the lake.
Sunset with mountains, orange water and flamingo's... Probably the most intense and beautiful experience of my life. It was really really cold, even with winter coat, hat and scarf, gloves are recommended.
We have been to this Laguna on our third day in San Pedro because on the Lonely Planet guide said there were many flamingos but as we had already been warned there aren't that many, probably also due to the season. The landscape is impressive but after having seen other lagunas such as Miscanti, Minique and Cejar we didn't appreciated as much
- It is worth the long drive from San Pedro- There were many flamingos and other birds- Interesting landscape with a structure of the salt different from Salar de Uyuni
First tour upon arrival in San Pedro. Just was not much to see , not sure what the fuss was about . Told this was a place to see the 3 type of flamingos but only saw a few of the standard pink variety . The bathroom facilities at this and the other parks is one step a port- a- potty and 2 stalls for the vast tour bus crowd guarantees a line. Not worth the admission price.
Impressive site, while the flamingos were few, the lake and proximity to the animals was well worth it. We have kids who are nature lovers (9 & 6) and this was pretty much the highlight of their visit. You will have several photo ops! Bring a hat, sunglasses, sunblock and water, it is very bright. The facilities are very clean and accessible. The is a little pavilion if you get sick or tired. We visited during midday but would love to get back and do a sunset visit.
O liked the place but get ready for a bit of the smell of flamingo's poop ... Generally they are too far for you to make sense of them... You may need a good photographic equipment...
These is the place to watch flamingos but the most interesting time of the day is the sunset. Even better if you are Lucky to have clouds in the sky. Bring your camera.
Loved the close-ups of the flamingos, the information stations, and there were even some tables so we could eat some lunch. No shade though!! Bring your hat and water bottle! My favourite thing was taking off my shoes to walk the salt trail - so relaxing!
