Q: My air tix get me to Buenos Aires, Rio, Santiago, and Lima, but
from there I’ll have to make my own way so… I know near Buenos Aires is near Mar Del Plata, anyone know a decent place to stay with access (without a car) to surf nearby?

A. Don’t know first hand about Mar de Plata, but I do get plenty of reports from there. From what I gather its a densely populated beach area with plenty of hotels. The surf is beach break, except for some points north of there. Don’t know exactly where they are and the names of the points. It’s about an hour out of buenos aires to get to the beach at Mar de Plata.

The South Atlantic will have temps in the fifties for water and upper sixties to nineties for the air. The norm for this time of year is short sleeve full or spring.

Argentina and Brazil will be a hit or miss, but the Argentine Women are something. Argentina has an excellent party scene and music scene. If you are unfamiliar with it you will be astounded. It sounds like you have a nice tour going — have fun.
