This tiny village of about 100 residents sits on the Beagle Channel shore roughly 75 km east of Ushuaia. It's about a 1.5-hour drive via provincial routes J and K, and there's no entrance fee to the village itself. Six restaurants operate here, including Puerto Pirata and La Mesita de Almanza, where a plate of freshly caught centolla (king crab) typically costs around ARS 15,000-25,000.
Opening Hours
Restaurants generally operate around 12:00-20:00; the village itself is open at all times

Fishing boats only go out in good weather, so it's worth checking with a restaurant ahead of time to confirm king crab availability.
