A perfect place to connect with nature and enjoy the view of some sea lions, while sitting on some stones. Really beautiful place, loved it there. Beautiful sunsets as well and the stars in Cabo Polonio are just so amazing! I wish I could have stayed there longer just to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Cabo Polonio definitely was one of the most beautiful if not the most beautiful place I’ve been to in Uruguay. If you are thinking of going there, do it! It is definitely worth it! I know it is hard to forget about your busy life and to shut off your phone and relax (did not have service there anyway) but try and do it and you will...

Cabo Polônio é um pequeno povoado localizado no Departamento de Rocha, no Uruguai, próximo a três pequenas ilhas que servem de morada para lobos marinhos e o seu nome é oriundo de um galeão espanhol que naufragou na região em 1735. Local de difícil acesso, a cerca de 7 km da estrada mais próxima e cercado por dunas de areias, o acesso só é possível de ser realizado por cavalos ou por carros 4x4 e é considerado um dos destinos mais populares de aventureiros e de jovens argentinos e uruguaios que chegam em grande número para acampar no povoado. Sua população fixa é pequena e formada principalmente por pescadores, artesãos e funcionários do farol, ainda não dispõe de energia elétrica, mas conta com excelente infraestrutura, com muitos restaurantes, pousadas, albergues e casas de aluguéis. E é nesse paraíso que fica abrigado o Farol de Cabo Polônio, construído em 1880, após um grande naufrágio que obrigou as autoridades nacionais a construí-lo para servir de guia aos navios que sem ter orientação não conseguiriam desviar dos grandes arrecifes ao redor, abrigado em uma bela edificação e aberto visitação pública, possui instalações muito limpas, bem cuidadas e se constitui em um dos maiores pontos turísticos da região, pela própria beleza do local e também por ser possibilitar caminhar pela praia, sentar nas rochas, ver os lobos marinhos e curtir a maravilhosa  paisagem, também é possível subir ao farol e ter uma vista 360º da orla, dos rochedos e das ilhas repletas de lobos...

Amazing place with breath taking view. Entry fee - 35 peso Time - 9:30 am to 4:30 pm

You need to climb 200 stairs to reach the top. Steps are stiff and it's better if kids avoid this. Entire cabo village with both side beaches can be seen from the top. You really can enjoy watching the sea lions swimming in sea. Be cautious to the strong wind up there while taking selfie with your mobile phone.

If you are spending a night in cabo, it's 100% recommended to enjoy at least 30...

Sin dudas el mejor faro del Uruguay 😎 Podes subir de 10:00 a 13:00 y de 15:00 a la puesta de sol. El costo por subir es de 35 pesos uruguayos. No está permitido el acceso a menores de 8 años. You can go up from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and from 3:00 p.m. to sunset. The cost to go up is 35 Uruguayan pesos. Access is not allowed to children under 8 years of age. Historias y leyendas Cuentan los habitantes más antiguos de Cabo Polonio, que uno de los primeros fareros llevaba a cabo sus labores acompañado de su mujer embarazada. Cuando el día del nacimiento de su hijo llegó, emprendió viaje rumbo a la capital departamental, Rocha, en busca de una partera, pero una gran tormenta tuvo que enfrentar por lo que su regreso tardó casi una semana. La mujer, en ausencia de su marido, y con su hijo ya nacido continuó subiendo diariamente los 132 escalones del faro para encender su protectora luz. Fuente Intendencia municipal de Rocha
