The hottest days have arrived and many are looking to cool off in bodies of water. An ideal option for these vacations, whether with friends, partner, or family, is a paradisiacal Argentinian island in Patagonia.
Victoria Island: a natural jewel
Victoria Island, known as “The Southern Caribbean,” is one of the favorites. This island, in the heart of Nahuel Huapi, surprises with its mix of exotic and native flora and fauna.
The turquoise and calm waters of this paradisiacal Argentinian island, along with the sensation of being practically alone in a unique environment, offer an unparalleled experience.
How to Get to Victoria Island
To get to Victoria Island, you can hire boats that sail across Lake Nahuel Huapi. The crew, composed of graduates from the Merchant Navy with years of experience, ensures a safe navigation on a lake surrounded by mountains.
Multiple companies offer this excursion, including rides on old boats, restored with period details.
Activities on Victoria Island
In addition to the boat ride, the main activity on Victoria Island is trekking. The trails, of low difficulty, lead to different points of interest and allow you to enjoy unique landscapes.
However, it is important to mention that you cannot explore the entire island, as only a part is open to visitors, while the rest remains untouched to preserve its flora and fauna.
Toro Beach: a special spot
One of the highlights is “Toro Beach”, especially popular in summer for its volcanic sand and turquoise waters. This spot is located just 15 minutes from Puerto Anchorena.
The path not only offers breathtaking views but also the opportunity to visit a small overhang with cave paintings, a true archaeological treasure in the midst of this natural environment.
