Puerto Madero, Mapped Dock by Dock
18+
A schedule-first guide to Puerto Madero's waterfront — plan an evening without guessing what connects to what.
What fits into a short visit
2 hours
One dock, one meal, one viewpoint. Enough for a stopover between meetings.

Two adjoining docks, a crossing of Puente de la Mujer, and a proper dinner.
6 hours
All four docks at an unhurried pace, including the ecological reserve entrance.
Dock Hopping Route Builder
The waterfront is organised around four docks — Dique 1 to Dique 4 — joined by bridges and a promenade. Our planner lets you pick stops on each dock, set a time budget, and see exactly how the transfers between docks add up before you commit to a route.

Getting around
Subte, bus and on-foot routes into Puerto Madero.
Before you go
- Puerto Madero has no metro station inside it — the nearest subte stops are a 10–15 minute walk away.
- Puente de la Mujer closes to pedestrians briefly when it rotates for boat traffic — rare, but worth knowing.
- The ecological reserve gates close before dark — plan daytime visits separately from the evening route.
- Evening dress codes at waterfront restaurants are generally smart-casual.
