With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to experience everything that Piriapolis, 25 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area beginning with Piriapolis Beach, Cerro del Toro and San Antonio Hill. Situated 40 miles away, La Paloma is another popular destination. If you stop by, be sure to check out Cape Santa Maria Lighthouse, Beach Balconada and Aguada Beach.
