Jutting out into the Atlantic Ocean, the barren and wind-swept Valdés Peninsula would attract little interest, were it not for the amazing variety of wildlife found there. Magellanic Penguins can be seen waddling from their burrows to the sea, Killer Whales patrol the water’s edge and Elephant Seals bask in the sun. On land there are Patagonian Hares, rheas, guanacos and armadillos. The placid Southern Right Whale can be watched between the months of July and December.
