Nueva Atlantis, human settlement in Argentina
Nueva Atlantis is a small village on the Atlantic coast of Buenos Aires with wide, soft beaches and gentle waves. The settlement consists mostly of small houses and cabins near the shore, with simple streets and open landscape that convey a sense of being in an untouched place.
The village was founded in 1958 and grew slowly while maintaining its calm character. Over decades, it developed into a preferred destination for families and couples seeking a relaxed beach holiday.
The name itself references the mythical Atlantis, sparking imagination among visitors. Locals live by the rhythm of the sea, spending mornings on the beach and evenings watching sunsets, creating a relaxed lifestyle that visitors experience directly.
The village is easy to reach by car and sits about 360 kilometers south of Buenos Aires. Most visitors rent a vehicle or take a bus, which allows them to explore the coastal landscape at their own pace and use the area flexibly.
The Faro San Antonio lighthouse sits just ten kilometers north of the village and offers a spectacular view of a large stretch of coastline from above. This nearby attraction is often overlooked by visitors, even though it provides one of the best viewpoints in the region.
