Colonia Sarmiento Travel Guide
Argentina
Colonia Sarmiento is a small town in southern Argentina, with a population of 8,292. It follows Argentina time and is served by Lago Musters Airport (OLN), the main airport for travellers arriving by air.
There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Colonia Sarmiento, so the town is better treated as an inland stop than a coastal beach destination. Its southern location means the seasons are opposite to those in Britain, with generally milder conditions in summer and colder weather in winter.
