Excursion Elegant punta del este & the sunset of casapueblo tour at Punta Del Este

Playa Brava’s Iconic Landmark

Your journey begins at Playa Brava, where you will pause to admire La Mano, the iconic sculpture whose emerging fingers have become one of Uruguay’s most beloved and photographed symbols—an ideal moment to capture the spirit of the destination.

La Barra and Its Signature Undulating Bridge

Continue along tree-lined boulevards and past the city’s most prestigious residential districts—San Rafael, Cantegril, and Beverly Hills—before reaching La Barra, known for its bohemian charm and artistic flair. Here, you will make a brief stop at the celebrated undulating bridge, a playful feat of engineering and an unmistakable emblem of the area.

Casapueblo: A Cliffside Masterpiece

Your exploration then leads you to Punta Ballena and the dazzling whitewashed silhouette of Casapueblo, the former home and atelier of renowned Uruguayan artist Carlos Páez Vilaró. Cascading down the cliffs in a whimsical blend of Mediterranean and artistic influence, Casapueblo offers magnificent terraces overlooking the endless blue of the Atlantic. Should the weather be favourable, you will witness one of the region’s most unforgettable spectacles: the sun slowly melting into the horizon, bathing sea and sky in exquisite colour.

Following this magical moment, relax as you make your comfortable return to the ship.
