Colonia del Sacramento beach

Colonia del Sacramento is a popular beach in the west of Uruguay. The place is very pleasant - with comfortable swimming in shallow water. Nearby, there is also interesting Old Town. There are no cafes, nor sun loungers on the beach. But on the other hand, it's not a problem to leave your car along the road. While ashore, there are many shaded spots under trees. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
