Cabo Polonio natural hippie reserve, the quiet charm of the Uruguayan Coast
At the crossroad between the Atlantic Ocean and the Rio de la Plata, Cabo Polonio is a natural reserve and small hippie village, spreading the Uruguayan peaceful atmosphere and quiet charm.
”Tranquilo”. The quiet charm of the Uruguayan Coast.
Cars are forbidden here. Just park and get in a local truck for 40 minutes drive to reach Cabo Polonio natural reserve. Be ready for a deep nature shot,
Cabo Polonio is made of cotton fields, large sand dunes, ocean waves and marijuana plantations - Uruguay is the only country of South America to legalize weed. In this hippie seaside village, there is few electricity, few water and no rigid buildings. To sleep, chose one of the small hotels in the dunes, with hammocks and guitars… By night, reach the cute restaurants and coffee huts…
