Nature reserve Punta del Marqués, Nature reserve near Rada Tilly, Argentina.
The protected area spans 100 hectares of Patagonian steppe and Argentine Sea coastline, featuring steep cliffs and marine wildlife habitats.
The reserve gained protected status through municipal administration agreements to safeguard the natural resources and marine ecosystems of the Chubut region.
Researchers and visitors gather at designated observation points to study and document the behavior of South American sea lion colonies throughout the year.
Access to the reserve requires a drive along a gravel road from Comodoro Rivadavia through Rada Tilly, leading to elevated viewing platforms.
A permanent colony of South American sea lions occupies the rocky shores, with population numbers reaching their peak between October and December.
