I have read a lot of interesting things about Puerto Madryn. I have read that they have lots of historic and tourists sites there. It would be nice to walk around and I\'ve read a recommendation from another site that you can start that walk at the Coastal Boulevard where you can see a helix and remains of Transporte Villarino ship. Then walk up to the end of the avenue than turn left and find lots of intersting services offered in the beach like submarine baptism and scuba diving. </p> http://argentinastravel.com/forums/topic/17#post-124 Sun, 24 Feb 2008 22:26:19 +0000 Scotty 124@http://argentinastravel.com/forums/ <p>Wow, I never got to see any exotic animals on my trip :( We didn\'t really spend too much by the ocean though because we had a lot to do more inland but it would have been fun to see all of those animals ! </p> http://argentinastravel.com/forums/topic/17#post-78 Sun, 24 Feb 2008 00:14:41 +0000 Dot 78@http://argentinastravel.com/forums/ <p>Thank you for the quality posts everyone, I am glad to know that much more about the wonderful country of Argentina! It seems that I will be able to do so much more on my trip! </p> http://argentinastravel.com/forums/topic/17#post-47 Thu, 31 Jan 2008 16:07:26 +0000 latimva 47@http://argentinastravel.com/forums/ <p>The very best time to go to this Peninsula to see the wildlife is from May to Decemeber. During these months you are guaranteed to see the Southern Right Whale and you won\'t even have to leave Puerto Madryn if you don\'t want to do so. Just walking down the beach right off the boardwalk from downtown you can see whales out playing in the water and they are constantly jumping and splashing around. It is mesmerizing. Of course on a tour of the Peninsula you will go out on a boat and see even more of them. Check out this article: <a href="http://argentinastravel.com/65/puerto-madryn-tourism-and-whale-watching-in-the-valdes-peninsula/" rel="nofollow">http://argentinastravel.com/65/puerto-madryn-tourism-and-whale-watching-in-the-valdes-peninsula/</a></p> <p>Out of the main season for whales you should still ask around if any have been spotted because their migration patterns change and everyone is always anxiously awaiting their return. But even if your timing is off with the Southern Right Whales, the Killer Whales are definitley around in March. From Feb to April and Oct to Nov they hang out at Punta Norte which you will visit on a tour of the Peninsula. </p> <p>You are pretty much guaranteed to see Penguins year round so if you arrive in March there will be some there, just not such huge numbers. The penguins can be found at Punta Norte as well, but the penguin \'village\' where they hang out in mass numbers is in Punta Tombo. The seals and sea lions will be around most of the time as well. </p> <p>And then of course on a tour you will see all kinds of land animals that are indigenous to Patagonia as well. Guanacos, nandu, maras, snakes, and even a tarantula made it into my first tour. </p> http://argentinastravel.com/forums/topic/17#post-39 Mon, 28 Jan 2008 18:07:15 +0000 Emily Crawford 39@http://argentinastravel.com/forums/ <p>Hi Camilla,<br /> Check out this link! <a href="http://argentinastravel.com/destinations/peninsula-valdes/" rel="nofollow">http://argentinastravel.com/destinations/peninsula-valdes/</a><br /> Camilla, you will likely see the Southern Sea Lion, the Elephant Seal and the Commerson\'s Dolphin. You might also see some Magellanic Penguins - they start their migration in April toward the north. The peak season for the Southern Right Whale and the Killer Whale is September and October with the season lasting from June to mid December. </p> http://argentinastravel.com/forums/topic/17#post-32 Tue, 22 Jan 2008 15:00:52 +0000 Anonymous 32@http://argentinastravel.com/forums/ <p>Hello!</p> <p>We´re going to Argentina in march this year.
