Indeed it’s written that it’s not allowed to stay here overnight. However we stayed there the whole day to work online (good 4G) and it was perfect. Then we drove few meters after the Club Nautico to sleep the night.

we stayed here over night - arrived in the dark and had no problems

Asigne now forbids overnight camping for cars or campers. For à nice and lonely spot, keep on driving west and you will find spots along the lake after the « clubo nautico «

it's no longer allowed to stay overnight

Peninsula with dispersed camping options on Lago Argentina. You may have some wind protection from the bushes if you’re in a tent, but they’re too low to provide any protection for rooftop tents or pop-up roofs like ours. As said, some trash around. Unfortunately, several cars passed by during the night (Thursday night) to chill for a while and drive away (waking us up a couple of times). Nice view of the lake though. Perfect 4G Claro.

Large place, quiet at night. Windy. Lot of trash (even condoms) at some parts, other parts are better. Close to the city, but quit nice views. Ok for a night. Possible with 2WD, but some roads are really sandy, be careful

Peaceful place to spend the night, facing the city ligths at the Argentino lake.
Please, take you trash with you!

Quiet and pleasant place to spend the night. On the edge of the lake with a beautiful view. There are no facilities close by. Claro's 4G internet works well. It is not protected from the wind.

Lugar silencioso e agradável pra passar a noite. Na beira do lago com uma bela vista. Não tem facilidades por perto. Internet 4G da Claro funciona bem. Não é protegido do vento.

Very quiet and beautiful view over calafate with an amazing sunrise. Didn't look like a lot of wind shelter but fortunately it wasn't windy at all.

Very nice place close to El Calafate. We stayed here with some other overlanders but you can still get your own privacy because of all the bushes. Really quiet at night.

Nice place near the lake. Very quiet in the nights!

Ótimo lugar! Lago por todos lados, vista de El Calafate iluminada de noite. Ficamos uns 3 dias aqui com outros 3 motorhomes. Sinal de Internet boa.

Quando venta muito pode ser ruim.

Very good place, spacious and quiet. Silent night with the possibility of finding positions that protect from the wind. It's on the edge of the lake.

Lugar muito bom , amplo e sossegado. Noite silenciosa e com possibilidade de encontrar posições que protegem do vento. Fica na beira do lago.

Good place to stay several days if you want.
Quiet at night, some local people during the day (some were very friendly).
Lake is very close and you can have bath.
There was no wind at all for us.

Please bring your papers and garbage with you ! Already too much poop among bushes.

Beautiful place, quiet, low bushes, hardly any wind protection. Good view of the lake and town.

On the lakeshore a few km outside El Calafate. Quiet.

Camped next to the abandoned (?) paint ball ground, parked just behind the fence on the beach. This was the only place in the whole of El Calafate we could find that had some decent wind protection for a rooftop tent. Take care driving on the sand further down; needed 4low to get out.

Great quiet spot right on the lake. Had an amazing night with a warming little bonfire. cute spot tucked away between bushes (good for wind protection). Did a garbage clean-up before leaving as it was a bit dirty. Definitely recommend this place!!

Nice place. We stayed for one night. Was very windy and dusty.

February 23rd, 2018 by jasminamiika

Had a quiet night here. No problems. Yes, some trash around but by now I am kinda use to it.

February 6th, 2018 by fred-971

nice, but right there around me there are condoms, beer cans, plastics...

Beautiful spot next the lake with lots of birds around. Lots of bush cover (mostly low/medium bushes) and places to choose to camp in tent or Campervan. A little windy. Arrived at 5pm and were the only people here, did not see or hear anyone else during the evening/night.

December 15th, 2017 by sophieharries2

Arrived here at about 5pm, no other campers here all night and didn’t see anyone else during our stay. Lots of spots to choose from. Beautiful spot with views over the lake, wildlife and lots of bush cover and not too windy for us.

Lovely to stay overnight or to spend the day - in winter lake frozen and you can skate! Hire skates for 60 ARP for 3 hours - on the other side of the lake where the white big house is...

February 26th, 2017 by aurore.boulanger

For a rooftop tent, not enough protected against the wind. Take care, there is some sandy place. We were stuck at 1am... it seems that we were not the first one. ^^ but if you follow the road, there is no problem to go there.

February 18th, 2017 by chilidread

good place to stay if you want it quiet in the night, nice views and to be nearby the City. During the day (weekend) many locals spend time here with their family having asado and a nice day on the beach. the lake is very cold but with a beautiful color ;)

Good place, close to El Calafate.

Nice place on the peninsula Calafate facing

December 23rd, 2016 by c.kaeppel

Quite area close to the lake. spent one night here and had a breakfast with a beautiful view over the city the next morning.

Gravel beach not far from El Calafate. The locals come here to walk their dogs.

Large area. Some bushes protect against wind. You can camp close to the lake shore. Windsurf, fish, relax here. A good boon dock option near El Calafate. Good for all rigs.
