The
Valdes Peninsula is an unusually shaped outcropping of land that extends out from the continent connected by a narrow isthmus. Located in the province of Chubut, along the Atlantic coast of Patagonia, the peninsula has close to 6.625 square kilometers. The region harbors several species of maritime animals, among them are the Southern Right Whale, Dusky Dolphins, Orcas, Magellanic Penguin colonies, Sea Lions and Southern Elephant Seals. While this is a State Nature Reserve and UNESCO World Heritage site it is NOT an untouchable, entirely protected park.
