Getting To and Away
Although the island is close to the town of Carmelo in Uruguay, it is usually reached by ferry via Tigre. Boats go out Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday at 9am, returning at 5pm. Cacciola, the ferry company, offers full-day packages, including boat passage, drinks, a guided tour, and lunch (see www.cacciolaviajes.com). There is an airport on Martin Garcia, but it is only accessible to small private planes. Be sure to chat with a pilot if you see one and you might secure a flight back to the mainland!
