Eastern Uruguay Travel Guide

Imperdible... ir a "Cabo Polonio"... en el departamento de Rocha a como 2 horas de Punta del Este. Pasando una serie de dunas arriba de una especie de tractor, estilo zafari (único medio para llegar a la playa)... se llega a un pequeño pueblo de pescadores... con una de las mejores playas de Uruguay... tranquila, exquicita, donde se puede descansar, comer bien y tomar un par de caipitinhas a la orilla del mar. Mas que recomendable!!

Go to the beach at Bikini, one of the most exclusive spots with lots of pretty young people. The place it's amazing at the sunset!

Piriapolis Uruguay is a quiet spot to get away from the busy Punta del Este which is only about 30 minutes away by car.   Located on the Plata River you will have a great view of a beautiful sunset where the people stop to applaud and marvel it's beauty every evening.  It's much cheaper than staying in Punta del Este.  If you care to enjoy the nightlife be sure to visit La Rinconada.  But don't go too early the party doesn't get started until 12am to 1am.  Be sure to go to the top of the hill and order a chivito while watching the sun set one evening.  If you're looking for a more quiet, relaxed, cheaper time at the beach but still close to the wildness of Punta del Este, this is a perfect location.
