From the charming colonial towns, to renowned beach resorts, rustic ranches, soccer worshipping, Uruguay is a modest little country with subtle attractions. Montevideo with its charming Old Town is a city of beaches, plazas, restaurants, cafes, nightclubs and casinos. The glamorous Punta del Este is filled with people looking for sun and fun.
Spend a day at the beach enjoying one of many water sports like yachting, deep-sea fishing and water skiing; enjoy lunch at the cafes and seafood restaurants lined along the waterfront promenade. The 17th century coastal town Colonia del Sacramento with its wonderful Old Portuguese colonial architecture and streets shaded by sycamores makes a perfect day trip.
