Observing
the whales: Puerto Pirámides is synonymous of
whales; already when arriving to the coast it is possible to see
the jets of vapor of water discharged by these fabulous animals
and it is unavoidable that the tourists hurry to hire an embarked
trip that allow to see them closely. The trip consists on coming
closer with the craft until the calm whales and to stop the engine
and then to let them come closer even more. It is as if these
enormous cetaceans were trained and they thanked the presence
of the visitors. The experience is unforgettable.
