Argentine Atlantic Coast
In Argentina, especially in tourism-related contexts, the term Atlantic Coast (Spanish: Costa Atlántica), or simply "the Coast" (la Costa), commonly refers to the Atlantic frontage of the Pampas plain in Buenos Aires Province, characterized by a chain of seaside resorts for beachgoing along the Argentine Sea in the South Atlantic Ocean. The tourist corridor's sandy beaches, temperate climate and wide range of tourist services have made it the country's main vacation destination, particularly during the summer season, which in Argentina runs from December to March.
