Take the highway 9 until the km 175 and you'll see a bridge over the laguna of Jose Ignacio. The spot is at the rivermouth. Besides the bridge there is a parking and a windsurfing school.

By car from the highway that goes from Punta del Este to Laguna Garzon and in the km 170 aprox you will see the laguna of Jose Ignacio and a bridge where you can park your car. Then walk for 5 mins to the spot. |
