Beaches
From off-grid hippie enclaves to chic celebrity hangouts to riotous party towns, there’s a beach in Uruguay for everyone. Uruguay’s largely unspoilt 660km coastline is an impressive stretch of sand and with its huge selection of beach towns full of something for every visitor, Uruguay ranks as a strong contender for the best beach destination in South America.
Horses
The ever-changing landscape and endless nature reserves in Uruguay make this a unique destination for horse riding. Nestled so close to Argentina, Uruguay is a land of pampas where the gaucho is king and equestrian traditions date back to the colonial Spanish. Trail ride across estancia lands and experience beach rides along the coastline on the back of local Criollo horses.
