Extra Tips for Travelers in Ushuaia
A few practical things to know to make your stay in Ushuaia stress-free when it comes to healthcare.
Always carry your passport
You will need it to purchase prescription medication at any pharmacy in Argentina.
Stock up before heading out
Pharmacies in Ushuaia are concentrated on San Martín Avenue. Most open until 9pm — ask your hotel for the farmacia de turno for after-hours needs. Stock up on any prescription medications before heading into the national park.
Cold water in the Beagle Channel
The Beagle Channel is near freezing year-round. Cold water shock during kayaking, zodiac tours, or boat excursions can incapacitate within minutes. Always wear a life jacket and consult a doctor immediately after cold water exposure.
Avoid self-medicating
Antibiotic resistance is a growing issue. Always consult a doctor before buying antibiotics over the counter in Argentina.
Dog bites and stray animals
Stray dogs are present in some areas of Ushuaia and on Patagonian trails. If bitten or scratched, consult a doctor immediately — post-exposure evaluation is important even for minor wounds.
