Playa Chiringo
Playa Chiringo Review
Things turn a bit rougher here, just east of Punta Ballena, with grittier sand and deeper water. Chiringo catches full sun at mid-morning but shadows descend as the afternoon progresses, and the sun sets behind Punta Ballena. As with Chileno and Pinares beaches, wind and waves make swimming riskier here.
- Location: Punta del Este
