A 19 hour bus journey from Buenos Aires and we arrived in Puerto Madryn, gateway to Peninsula Valdes. We´re here to see Southern Right Whales, Sea Lions, Elephant Seals and Penguins.

Puerto Madryn is functional at best so don't hang about too long. The Peninsula is mainly scrubland but in the water the action really gets going. The whales are obviously the main attraction but the penguin and seal colonies are really cool too. The boat trip was brilliant and we got so close to so many whales we couldn't have been happier.
