Coronel Rosales Partido, Administrative division in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina
Coronel Rosales Partido is an administrative region along the coast of Buenos Aires Province that includes several settlements with Punta Alta as its main city. The area spans across coastal territory with multiple towns and neighborhoods.
The region was established as an independent administrative zone in 1945 after residents of Punta Alta had long sought separation from neighboring areas. This division marked an important moment for local self-governance.
The naval base shapes how many people here work and live, creating a strong connection to maritime activities. This military influence is visible in the daily routines and professional focus of residents.
Most visitors use Punta Alta as a starting point since main administrative offices are located there. The coastal location makes it easy to visit the different settlements and explore multiple areas during a single trip.
The small coastal village of Pehuen Có preserves traces of the past where visitors can see fossilized animal tracks and ancient human footprints. These paleontological findings offer a rare window into the region's natural history.
