Punta del Este

V!VA User‘s Description

A peninsula jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean, Punta del Este is the  southernmost point in Uruguay. The town is wildly popular and fills to capacity during the warm summer months, December to March. Watch the sun rise and set over open water, lounge on a different beach every day, stroll the oceanfront promenade, the Rambla General Artigas, dive into the water sports like yachting, surfing, fishing, waterskiing and swimming or take high afternoon tea at one of the many tea rooms in town. You will probably run out of money before you run out of things to do.
