Two more beach towns

The tiny beach town of Balneario San Cayetano, which is not even found on google maps, is set at the edge of the dunes. Only a few blocks to wander with easy access to endless beach. Camping within a walk to the shore.


Claromecó Playa and the museum lighthouse is our last Buenos Aires Province beach stop.
