Playa Mansa
Beaches are the big daytime draw in sunny Punta, and there are plenty to choose from. On the west side of town, Rambla Artigas snakes along the calm Playa Mansa on the Río de la Plata, then passes the busy yacht harbor, overflowing with boats, restaurants, nightclubs and beautiful people, before circling around the peninsula to the open Atlantic Ocean.

Bikini
Punta's main attraction is its beaches. The most popular and fashionable is Bikini - north along the rugged Playa Brava. With more golden tans than a crowded solarium, it's a great place to surf or swim, depending on local conditions and the general level of action.

Playa Brava
On the eastern side of the peninsula the water is rougher, as reflected in the name Playa Brava; the waves and currents here have claimed several lives. Also on the Atlantic side, you'll find surfer-friendly beaches like Playa de los Ingleses and Playa El Emir.
