Sunset With Penguins

An unforgettable sunset adventure among golden cliffs and a lively Magellanic penguin colony.

As the day draws to a close and the Patagonian shoreline is bathed in the warm glow of sunset, an exceptional experience awaits on the quiet beaches of El Pedral, just 75 km from Puerto Madryn.
The exclusive “Sunset with Penguins” program invites you to savor this enchanting time of day in a pristine natural setting, as the penguins return from the waves and begin their evening nesting activities.

🐧 A wildlife encounter in harmony with the penguins

This excursion leads you through one of Patagonia’s newest Magellanic penguin colonies, nestled within the Punta Ninfas Wildlife Refuge.
Protected by law and overseen by the Global Penguin Society, the area guarantees a sustainable and eco-friendly visit. Accompanied by a bilingual guide, you’ll take an interpretive walk to observe the penguins up close at different stages of their life cycle: from incubating couples to newly hatched chicks or inquisitive juveniles exploring their environment. Each moment is unique and perfect for memorable photographs.🍷 Sunset by the SeaAt the end of the experience, everyone gathers by the shoreline to enjoy Patagonian-style snacks and drinks as the sun dips behind the cliffs. The sky glows with golden tones, the sea mirrors the day’s last light, and the soothing sound of the waves creates an authentic atmosphere—perfect for unwinding and immersing yourself in nature. Afterwards, we return to Puerto Madryn.
