Puerto Madryn is protected by the Golfo Nuevo, which is formed by Península Valdés and Punta Ninfas, and is one of the most sheltered places on the Patagonian coast. With five kilometers of beaches bordering the city, Puerto Madryn is the gateway to many other attractions in Argentina. Top among them is Valdes Peninsula Nature Reserve, a UNESCO heritage site since 1999.

Excellent museum within walking distance of the port. Beautifu historic building, with excellent sea displays. the building is just beautiful, with narrow doorways, a fantastic staircase, and lovely floors. The man in the booth was very welcoming and we had to write where we were from in the visitors book, but the visit was free. Well worth the short walk from the port if you visit Puerto Madryn

It took us awhile to find it, but it was worth every footstep to get there! An amazing place full of fantastic specimens of local crystals - a surprising amount!! Father and son were so hospitable and knowledgeable! A place I hope to return to when travel is an option again!

Located on a cliff overlooking the Patagonian Sea, this small museum offers a different approach to understanding the Valdes Peninsula and Patagonia. It combines art and science in many educational ways with emphasis on the understanding and appreciation of the area. Marine life, geography, ecosystems, ocean currents, evolution and more are woven into various presentations. There is much to be learned about the Southern Right Whale even to experiencing their underwater sounds. Interactive exhibits and children’s areas are good for the kids. Be sure to go up in the lighthouse tower for some good views and possible sightings of whales. The little artificial tidal pool houses a variety of invertebrates. Staff is fluent in English, and signs are also in English which is very helpful. Check on the times the museum is open because they seem to vary. There is both shuttle and bus service from town, but again, check on the times. Admission is somewhere between $6-8 US and the museum is non-profit. Nice little library, cafe and gift shop too.

This city and the area in general was settled in the 1850s by Welsh immigrants, and while a modern small town it still has a few cold structures and cultural attraction we saw as part of a cruise ship tour. Had afternoon tea at the Welsh Tea House and had a short city tour. Of US H iui storic note, there is a hotel in the city where Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid stayed around 1908 before traveling to Boliva.
