Move by Yourself

I'm not going to lie it was hard leaving or beautiful beach house in Punta del Diablo. Especially when we found out after the fact that our next stop Cabo Polonio, didn't have running water or electricity! Our vacation was supposed to get us away from things like that. But, on we went, and boy am I glad we did.

Cabo Polonio is a small hippie town that is part of a national park. There is only one way to get there, stop at the Information Center/Bus Station and book your ride on 4x4 vehicles. Cabo Polonio is a very popular day trip spot so there are always vehicles coming and going. We decided to stay for there for 3 nights, which was a perfect amount.

Honestly it is very hard to describe Cabo Polonio. I think the best way is "awesomely weird." It almost makes me think of a hippie commune, lots of people with dreadlocks, handmade jewelry being sold and yes even drum circles. The only electricity is from wind or solar power, so at night most of the restaurants are candle lit; and the only running water is if the place you are staying at has a pump on their well. Luckily our hostel did but sometimes it felt like taking a shower underneath a dripping sink.
