Rio Turbio Travel Guide
Argentina
Rio Turbio is a small city in southern Argentina, with a population of around 6,650. It sits in the cool, open landscape of southern Patagonia and is a practical base for exploring this remote part of the country.
Travellers arriving by air use Rio Turbio Airport (RYO), the airport serving the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so Rio Turbio is better suited to inland Patagonian scenery than to a beach holiday.
