Beach Varese
Buenos Aires Japanese Gardens
I recommend visiting early in the morning, around 9 AM, to avoid the crowds and enjoy the gardens in peace. The morning light really brings out the beauty of the plants.
My suggestion is to take your time exploring. I rushed through it initially but realized the charm is in wandering and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere.
Try to pack a small picnic. The gardens are perfect for a lunch break and it saves you money instead of eating at the cafe.
Paseo El Rosedal Garden
Bring a picnic! The gardens are super scenic, and you can save some cash by enjoying a meal there instead of heading out to a restaurant.
If you're a fan of roses, try to plan your visit when the blooms are at their peak. Late spring to early summer is ideal for the best views.
Take your time exploring the different areas; each section has its own vibe. I suggest wandering off the main paths for a more peaceful experience.
Garden Botanico Carlos Theis
Don’t forget to bring some snacks and water. There are a few spots to grab a bite, but they can be a bit pricey. Picnicking in the gardens was awesome!
Ecological Reserve
My advice is to download a birdwatching app before your visit. I found it helpful for identifying species and enhancing the overall experience!
Grand Beach
Check the surf conditions before you go! I found out there are better waves in the morning, around 8-10 AM. It's less crowded and way more fun. If you’re not a pro, consider renting a board nearby instead of buying one.
Bring your own snacks and drinks. Beach vendors can be overpriced. I saved a ton by just packing a cooler with some sandwiches and water. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did.
Try to learn a few Spanish phrases. Most people were friendly, but knowing basic greetings made my interactions way better. Plus, you’ll get more local recommendations that way. It’s a win-win!
Park Tres de Febrero
I recommend visiting early, around 8 AM, to beat the crowds and enjoy the serene atmosphere. It’s perfect for a peaceful morning walk or jog before the park gets busy.
Check out the Rosedal, it’s stunning! It’s right in the park and a bit hidden; you won't regret spending some extra time exploring it. Wish I’d discovered it sooner!
If you want to save time, rent a bike at one of the kiosks in the park... It makes getting around quicker and you can cover more ground... I had a blast cruising through the paths!
Temaiken
Plaza Dorrego
Make sure to visit on a Sunday for the antique market. It’s way busier, but you'll find unique souvenirs and the energy is awesome!
Be cautious of pickpockets, especially when the plaza gets crowded. Keep your belongings secure and stay aware of your surroundings!
Check out the street art as you walk to Plaza Dorrego. Some of it is truly incredible and gives you a different feel for the neighborhood!
Grab a coffee or snack at one of the small cafes around the plaza and enjoy the street performers. It's a relaxed way to soak in the atmosphere.
Mariano Beach
Bring your own surf gear if you can. Rental prices can skyrocket during peak season, so packing your own board and wetsuit is a game-changer.
I recommend hitting the waves early in the morning, around 7 AM, when the water is less crowded and the waves are perfect for surfing. It's pretty peaceful then!
If you're planning to stay for sunset, grab a spot on the beach by 6 PM. It gets packed quickly, and trust me, the sunset views are totally worth it!
