Monte Hermoso
Monte Hermoso is an Atlantic Coast beach town in southern Buenos Aires Province with a distinctive geographic quirk: it is the only place in Argentina where both sunrise and sunset are visible over the sea. The beach runs for an extended stretch, the summer water is warmer than at comparable Argentine resorts, and the tallest lighthouse in South America — Faro Recalada a Bahía Blanca, prefabricated in France by the same firm that built the Eiffel Tower and opened in 1906 — stands a short drive east of town and offers daily guided tours.
