Laguna del Diario

Laguna del Diario is a small, tranquil lagoon just minutes from the bustle of Punta del Este, marking the gateway into the city of Maldonado. At only four hectares, this quiet water body carries more than two centuries of history — it was here, in 1755, that the first settlers founded the city of Maldonado before relocating to its current site. Today, the lagoon offers a peaceful contrast to the glitz of nearby beaches, with small shore beaches, windsurfing, pedal boats, and a rich ecological story of restoration.
