Very good place to take portraits and beach photos. You can walk over the rocks on the sea and witness the waves up close.
Uruguay, Departamento Roche, Punta del Diablo, Playa de los Pescadores. Translated, Punta del Diablo means Cape of the Devil and Playa de los Pescadores means Beach of the Fishermen. Once Punta del Diablo was a small fishing village. Today it is a major tourist hotspot. Nevertheless, the place has kept its original character. There are a lot of small, brightly painted houses. Graffiti can often be found on the walls. On the beach you can find the beautiful fishing boats, I don't know if they are just decoration today. People often surf at Playa de los Pescadores. The waves, however, are not too big. Along the beach you can eat in the wooden bars. The streets are often not sealed. The rocks offer a very nice contrast to the sandy stalls. I liked it very much in Punta del Diablo.
There is not much to say other then it's beautiful and very calming to do meditation
Little bit smelly 😝
What a nice beach and beach town! Epic charm, super clean, and super safe. Loved it!!
Super cool. Do not miss!!!

This is a beautiful beach, with beautiful sand dunes. There is lots of space on this beach, so it’s nowhere near crowded like European beaches.

Awesome beach and beautiful view. Nice place to rest and have fun with friend and family
A nice beach in Punta Del Diablo. A little bit away from the big crowds that gather on the most central beach in town. Worth a visit.
Definitely worth a stop!
Beautiful beach to spend an entire day. The water was nice in February. There is lots of space, so there isn’t crowing like on European beaches.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach in Punta del Diablo, with lots of space, wide, great waves. Quiet and family beach. It has its own magic. (Original) Hermosa playa en Punta del diablo, con mucho espacio, amplia, gran oleaje. Playa tranquila y familiar. Tiene magia propia.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach, one of the two most beautiful in Punta del Diablo. (Original) Hermosa playa, una de las dos más lindas que tiene punta del diablo.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach. It has a beach bar; during peak season, there's a line to buy things, but the prices are good and it's delicious. The beach has lifeguards and is ideal for families. Another advantage is that, in addition to having a staircase (not through the dunes), it has a ramp that allows access for seniors, cars, wagons, etc. I don't know of another beach around here that's as complete. (Original) Hermosa playa. Tiene parador, en alta temporada hay fila para.poder comprar, pero tiene bue os precios y rico. La playa tiene salvavidas, es ideal para familias. Otra ventaja es que además de tener escalera para bajar (no es x dunas) tiene una rampa que permite el acceso a gente mayor, coches, carros, etc. No sé de otra playa por aquí tan completa

Great market by the sea
A really nice walk down Punta del Diablo and you'll find yourself into the Feria de Artesanos, where local artisans and artists will gleefully show their products and art, and you'll know they care about their craft, which is part of a lifestyle only attainable by those who live in places like Punta del Diablo. A nice experience if you're around!
I hope there are better places in PDD. I had a fun sundowner here with a mate, but wished the whole time for something more epic. The surf was pounding, the sun was glowing, there were no clouds, and there was a nice breeze. Should have been perfect, and yet, it felt a little shabby & touristy. I could have been in Mexico. Can't complain about the prices (excellent) nor the service (our bartender was fine), but it could have been so much more.
Just a few stands open in low season (I think weekends only then), the lady at the end of the market on the right, Alba, makes the best Empanadas!
Good service and food
Cozy place with an outstanding view!
A nice place to buy crafts

Great place to sit on the rocks and take in the views of the ocean and the town. If you want to be more active then jumping and climbing on the rocks is also good fun!
Amazing. Come to see the beach from the sea. And if u r in winter u can see seals but be position . And be car fool from the rocks
(Translated by Google) The beach itself is breathtaking with its unique natural beauty, a perfect place for lots of photos. The city itself lacks adequate infrastructure and gives tourists the impression that it is very dangerous, but during the time I was there, there were no problems, so I believe it is relatively safe. (Original) A praia em si é de tirar o fôlego com uma beleza natural única, local perfeito para várias fotos. Já a cidade carece de uma infraestrutura adequada e passa uma vibe para o turista de ser muito perigosa, mas durante o tempo que estive não ocorreu nenhum problema então acredito que seja relativamente segura
(Translated by Google) Emblematic point, with a curious and picturesque statue of Artigas, at the rocky end of Punta del Diablo. Next to it is a fragment of the message sent to Simón Bolívar, asking to assist the artiguista corsairs. From there you can see the entire town and its beaches, and you are left alone in front of the impressive waves. (Original) Punto emblemático, con una curiosa y pintoresca estatua de Artigas, en el extremo rocoso de Punta del Diablo. A su lado hay un fragmento del mensaje enviado a Simón Bolívar, pidiendo asistir a los corsarios artiguistas. Desde allí se ve todo el pueblo y sus playas, y uno queda solo frente al oleaje impresionante.
(Translated by Google) Beautiful beach is worth visiting, it looks like a city from the 70s, but it has good shops, some restaurants, and the people are very polite, like all of Uruguay. (Original) Bela praia vale apenas conhecer, parece uma cidade dos anos 70, mas tem um bom comercio , alguns restaurantes, o povo muito educado, como todo o Uruguai.
(Translated by Google) You pass by the crafts fair to go to the lighthouse with the Artigas Monument. The natural beauty of the place is a spectacle that surprises. The set of rocks and the sea water that beats constantly invites us to contemplate. The perfect place to see the coast of Punta Del Diablo, Praia dos Pescadores. (Original) Você passa pela feira de artesões para ir ao farol com o Monumento à Artigas. A beleza natural do lugar é um espetáculo que surpreende. O conjunto de pedras, a água do mar que bete sem parar nos convida a contemplação. Local perfeito para ver a orla de Punta Del Diablo, Praia dos Pescadores.
(Translated by Google) Punta del Diablo, a quick stop to get to know the place, nothing interesting, a small village with no attractions that interest me. (Original) Punta del Diablo, passagem rapida para conhecer o lugar, nada de interessante, vilarejo pequeno sem atrações que me interessam.

(Translated by Google) Very good service ☺️ (Original) Muy buen servicio ☺️
(Translated by Google) I don't like them!! Seeing the animals in those conditions and I have them two plots of land from my cabin and opposite on a board property, is pathetic. The animals are sacred and the owners have to start by 8 o'clock (Original) No me gustan !! Ver a los animales en esas condiciones y los tengo a dos terrenos de mi cabaña y enfrente en un predio de la junta , es patético . Los animales son sagrados y los dueños que arranquen para las 8 horas
