Tigre Partido

Tigre Partido is an administrative division in northern Greater Buenos Aires that combines mainland areas with sections of the Paraná Delta, shaped by numerous waterways and islands. The region spans 368 square kilometers and is structured through a complex network of canals and water routes.

The area was founded in 1790 as Las Conchas and relocated following severe floods in 1805, which led to establishing a new settlement with viceroy authorization. This relocation shaped where the region developed and how it is laid out today.

The Puerto de Frutos market displays local traditions through vendors selling regional products, crafts, and fresh produce from the delta region. This marketplace reflects how people depend on the waterways for their everyday life and livelihood.

The region connects to Buenos Aires through the General Bartolomé Mitre Railway and multiple bus lines that provide regular services. Getting around and reaching this area by public transport is straightforward for visitors.

The municipality contains a network of rowing clubs along its waterways and has become a center for competitive water sports in Argentina. These clubs are deeply rooted in the local community and shape how people spend their leisure time.
