Puerto Belgrano Naval Base

The Puerto Belgrano facility spans across a vast coastal area, featuring dry docks, training grounds, equipment storage facilities, and military housing complexes.

Established in 1896, Puerto Belgrano Naval Base began operations with the construction of what was at that time the largest dry dock in the world.

The naval base maintains strong connections with the local community through maritime ceremonies, naval heritage exhibitions, and educational programs about Argentina's naval traditions.

Visitors require official authorization and must present identification documents at the main entrance, located 700 kilometers south of Buenos Aires.

The base contains a construction site for the Tronador II space launch vehicle, combining naval operations with space exploration capabilities.
