Montevideo

Montevideo · Uruguay · Ciudad de la Costa

A beachfront promenade that runs the entire length of the city, steak taken so seriously it has its own vocabulary, and a laid-back pace that makes neighbouring capitals look frantic by comparison.

The best time to visit Montevideo is Nov–Mar, when typical daytime highs reach about 21°C (70°F). Local time there is 05:19 (UTC-3).
