Embark on a journey across the diverse terrain of Santa Teresa National Park, an expansive plot of protected land that ends at the Atlantic Ocean. Relax on one of the park's many pristine, uncrowded beaches, or take a hike to see the colonial fortress that stands on a hilltop. For wildlife, head to the national park's lagoons to spot flamingos, and to the coastal sanctuary to catch glimpses of sea-turtles. The park's main office offers a range of services, including a market, bakery, and restaurant. Stock up on supplies before beginning your adventure.

  • Wonderful place for camping and surfing and having a great time within nature. The many beaches alongside the park shores make it very special <3

  • Uruguay, Departemento Rocha, Parque Nacional de Santa Teresa A former military area with a very beautiful tree population which has been converted into a recreation area. It is actually a very large campground. Entrance is free. There is a beautiful sandy beach and a fort, but we did not visit it.
  • So beautiful and interesting. Loved the views and the animals. The capybaras stole my heart 😻
