"Before moving to Punta del Diablo, it is important to know that this small fishing village is located in the department of Rocha, Uruguay and is a popular destination for tourists and backpackers. The village has a population of only around 1,200 people, making it a quiet, relaxed, and safe community to live in. Visitors can expect a diverse range of activities to choose from, such as surfing, kitesurfing, fishing, horseback riding, hiking, taking boat tours, visiting the wildlife reserves, and exploring the small local artisanal markets. Access to basics such as groceries, utilities, and internet is available, albeit limited. Visitors should ensure that their vaccines are up to date and note that snakes, spiders, and large lizards are known to reside in the region.
