Considered the main seaside resort in America, Punta del Este is located in the department of Maldonado, barely an hour and a half from the country’s capital, Montevideo.

It offers an extraordinary range of attractions and the natural beauty of its peninsula makes it unique.

Water sports are common place in Punta del Este. The port is typically packed with a large number of upscale boats that enhance the bay’s glamour.

Restaurants, pubs, discos, antiques shops and art galleries lure thousands of people that swarm the downtown area round the clock, looking for fun.
