On our way back, we will go past the Salinas and we will have
the chance to observe the terrestrial fauna, and in case we
fail to sail in the morning for bad weather, we will go past
Pirámides Port for sighting. Arrival late in the afternoon
in Puerto Madryn. Within October and March an extension to North
End of the Peninsula can be made. There is a private Penguin
colony there, smaller, but more personalised than Punta Tombo
(a good option for that passenger who has little time available).
