Entrance
Clearing in to Buenos Aires is relatively simple, but needs some leg work and must be completed within 24 hours of arrival. You need to take, not only your passports, ship's papers and clearance from your last port but also a letter from the marina ( Pto Madera or YCA) stating that your yacht is indeed in the port. You must first attend the Immigration building at Av. Antartida Argentina 1355 close west of Darsena Norte. The person who deals with yachts has an office buried deep within the bowels of the building . Next call is either at the Prefectura office situated between the bridges 3 and 4 in the Puerto Madero complex. The next step is the office of Direccion General de Aduanas to get your Certificado de Admision Temporal, Is inside the ferry station ( BUQUEBUS STATION ) , near 100 mts from YCA or Yacht Club Puerto Madero.
When shifting ship up to the San Fernando area there is no requirement to do any further paperwork.
Berthing
- San Isidro/San Fernando - Most cruisers proceed to the San Isidro/ San Fernando area - just NW of the city of Buenos Aires where the bulk of water related activity occurs.
Marinas &Yacht Clubs
- Yacht Club Argentino . (Email) A private yacht club, the most prestigious in the country. 7 days free mooring for visitors. Yachts lie to buoys. The best place to stop when clearing into Buenos Aires either from another Argentinian port or from overseas. Call 'YCA' 'eek-ka' on Ch 16 on arrival to seek admission. A club launch will open the boom for you and direct you to your mooring.
- Puerto Madero. An upmarket commercial marina situated within the old Puerto Madero dock area. One night's free mooring. Call 'Marina Puerto Madero' on Ch 71. The swing bridge at the entrance opens for yachts on the hour as required and as with YCA a marina workboat will direct you to your berth.
Both marinas have very helpful staff. Advance booking recommended in both cases.
