ROCHA LAGOON:
Laguna de Rocha is a protected area located on the Atlantic coast of Uruguay, in the department of Rocha. It is one of the largest lagoons in the country, and is surrounded by dunes, beaches and pine forests.

The lagoon is an important feeding and resting area for migratory birds, and is home to a wide variety of waterfowl species, such as ducks, herons, flamingos, among others. It is also an important habitat for fish and other aquatic species.

The protected area of Laguna de Rocha covers an area of 2,200 hectares and is administered by the Uruguayan government through the National System of Protected Areas (SNAP). The main objective of protecting this area is to conserve its biodiversity and associated ecosystems, and to promote responsible and sustainable tourism in the area.

Among the activities that can be carried out in the protected area are bird watching, hiking, sport fishing and sailing in the lagoon. In addition, the area offers a wide variety of tourist services, such as accommodation, restaurants and recreational activities.

THE BEACHES OF ROCHA:
Rocha has an extensive and varied coastline on the Atlantic Ocean, with beaches that extend for more than 100 kilometers, from the border with Brazil to the border with the Department of Maldonado. Rocha’s beaches are famous for their natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere, many of them surrounded by forests and white sand dunes.

Among the most popular beaches are La Paloma, Cabo Polonio, La Pedrera, Punta del Diablo, Santa Teresa, Valizas and Aguas Dulces. Each has its own personality, from the laid-back, bohemian atmosphere of Cabo Polonio to the lively night scene of La Pedrera.

In addition to enjoying the sun and the sea, Rocha’s beaches offer a variety of activities, such as surfing, kiteboarding, sport fishing, horseback riding, and whale watching in season. Many beaches also have tourist services, such as restaurants and accommodation.

ROCHA:
Rocha is a department located on the east coast of Uruguay, known for its beautiful beaches and rich maritime history. The city of La Paloma is a popular tourist destination that offers a wide variety of beaches, from the busiest and liveliest to the quietest and solitary. Cabo Polonio, on the other hand, is a remote and isolated coastal town, without electricity or running water, where nature and wildlife take center stage.

The Rocha coast is also known for its many shipwrecks, some of which have become attractive tourist spots for history buffs. In addition, Rocha has one of the largest ombú forests in the world, an evergreen tree with a wide trunk that can reach up to 15 meters in height, found in the Valizas and Aguas Dulces area. In short, Rocha is an ideal place for those looking to enjoy beautiful beaches, untouched nature and a rich maritime history.
