| Up the coast in Cabo After many kilometres, countless mates and a lot of uncertainty we finally arrived at the Cabo Polonio access point. Carefully hidden behind a sea of dunes, you can only get to “El Cabo” through a truck service that carries the beach-starving people from the parking to their desired destination - the beach!Cabo Polonia has 2 beaches, Calavera y Sur, it has an enviable sandstrip, it has a lot wind, it has a little market laden with hippy stuff for sale, it has a lighthouse that I didn’t visit, it has an amazing colony of sea lions, it has a few dozen shacks with no light or running water where a few lucky people get to spend a few days, weeks or even the whole summer. As far as beaches go, by far the most beautiful beach I saw in Uruguay. Not sure if I could spent 3 months here, as some do, but I would certainly spend a few days enjoying the rest, the sun and the sea. Anyone every stayed there the whole summer? |
