    The observation itself was beautiful. We were able to observe the stars, the moon, and several clusters of stars. The Tibetan bell bath was very relaxing. The only problem was that we are Italian and had a hard time understanding the explanation because the guide spoke very quickly, without enunciating clearly and without any translation.

    Despite the wind, we managed to navigate. The landscape is wild and fascinating, and we even spotted a penguin. Our guide, Cristobal, was very knowledgeable and charismatic. He pointed out many species of birds and wild animals along the way, as well as showing us indigenous tools found on land. Recommended for those who love adventure and nature.

Known for its golden beaches, colonial architecture, and relaxed atmosphere, it’s a favorite destination for travelers looking to blend history with seaside leisure. With its palm-lined avenues, lively markets, and bustling promenade, the city offers a unique mix of tradition and modernity that captivates every visitor.

A Glimpse into the Past
