Getting There

• Car

  If you're traveling by car, start from Punta del Este, which is roughly a 30-minute drive away. Head east on Ruta 10 (also known as the 'Coastal Route'). Continue on Ruta 10 until you reach the junction with Ruta 12. Turn left onto Ruta 12 and follow the signs for Chihuahua. After about 5 kilometers, turn right onto C. El Gratil. Continue straight for about 1 kilometer until you reach Chihuahua Naturist Beach. There are no entrance fees for the beach, but parking may be limited during peak season.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, you can catch a bus from Punta del Este to the nearby town of Chihuahua. Look for buses labeled 'Chihuahua' at the Punta del Este bus terminal. The journey takes approximately 40 minutes. Once you arrive in Chihuahua, you will need to walk about 1.5 kilometers to reach the beach. Follow the signs for C. El Gratil, and continue straight until you reach the beach. Make sure to check the bus schedules in advance, as they may vary, especially on weekends.

• Bicycle

  For the more adventurous, cycling to Chihuahua Naturist Beach is a fantastic option. You can rent a bicycle in Punta del Este. Take the same route as you would by car, biking along Ruta 10 towards Ruta 12. This route offers beautiful coastal views, but be prepared for some traffic. The total ride is about 12 kilometers, so be sure to bring water and sunscreen. The beach does not have any entrance fees, and there are typically places to lock your bike nearby.
