Very good place to spend the morning or afternoon (Be careful that in the afternoon the beach has shade since the trees block the sun although in summer it can be useful). The water is transparent and not as cold as I expected. Ideal for drinking mate and soaking your feet. Be sure to visit the Correntoso River, which is only about 200 meters away. You can arrive from the viewpoint or do so from the route of the 7 lakes passing the bridge over the Correntoso River below.

Incredible place, it is hidden but it is worth it... If you walk like I did since I don't have a car... there is a descent from a viewpoint, go down without fear... And in the background the entrance appears, the truth is incredible... Yes or yes getting your feet wet... it is a beautiful sensation... The view is unique, there is no bathroom or anything to buy food. So bring mate and something to eat!!!
