PUNTA DEL ESTE... I DON´T REALLY GET ALL THE FUZZ ABOUT IT...

For somebody who likes the sea a lot, I´m not a staying-on-the-beach-sunbathing-under-the-scorching-sun kind of person.
You see, I´m thinking there must be some lost vampire along the line of my ancestors and I inherited its pale skin. So I basically burst in flames under the sun.

Therefore it was pretty obvious I wasn´t going to spend the entire afternoon on the beach with not even a single tree to hide under at noon on a very hazy day of November. 

I grabbed a city map from the tourist office and walked to the southern point of Punta del Este to find the lighthouse. And once I found it and took photos of it, I walked all the ay back to the Playa Brava but I choose to do so by the quieter coast of Playa Mansa. The only thing quiet about Playa Mansa is the water! Other than that, it´s rather noisy with many cars on the streets, tourist from everywhere wandering around, restaurants, bars and tall buildings.
