A must stop for tourists. Good luck trying to get a good picture though, since people won’t wait for it.

The area is not more like we see in pictures. Now there is a wood floor around the sculpture (which I think remove its charmand the area is in an ambiental recuperation plan where native vegetation is growing everywhere in the sculpture. If you wish a picture from the hand emerging from the sand I am sorry to disappoint you.

In high season there are TOO many people, so you should stay in a queue to wait for your turn. Some guys offer to take a dron photo.Every year the color of fingers changes, by the way.

The monument is quite iconic with everyone taking selfies and photos, to that Id give it a five. However the beach is not great. Id suggest to go to Piriapolis. All beaches towards that direction are great.

They buried a giant in the sand. All thats left are some fingers. Punta del Rate is a really cool beach with a very nice vibe. People are very polite. The place is super clean. And the fingers are just friggin cool.

Fun and unique to visit this part of the beach on the Atlantic Ocean side of Punta del Este and see the 5 fingers of a hand coming up out of the sand and of course everyone wants a picture, but with patience there are spaces of time to take some fun pics

Very simple artwork but quite mesmerizing. Huge fun to take photos at although you have to consider that its ba very popular photo op and quite busy. The beach there is magnificent and it is close to the great shops and the superb eateries of the breath taking Punta del Este peninsula.

Great photo spot, although due to the sheer size and spacing of the fingers its tough to get a good shot from the wooden boardwalk.

Its impossible to get this sculpture all to yourself. Too many inconsiderate tourists who pose and stay forever, without any consideration to the others. Best time to come here would be early in the morning when no one is around 😁

This was a great beach to spend the day. We took a bus from Montevideo that stopped very close to Brava Beach and took pictures of the Fingers of Punta del Este .It was a fun day to go for a run on the beach and play in the surf.

This is such an awesome attraction to see if you visit Punta del Este, Uruguay! Certain parts of the day will have heavier traffic than other parts of the day, but even with other people around, it is entirely worth it to get a picture with this famous sculpture. You can even enjoy the beautiful walk along the beach where you will see multiple species of birds and the calm waves crashing.

The fingers are obviously a must stop seeing that there’s not much else to take a pic of in this town.

If you have seen the world dont bother to spend your time here. There are a lot a beautiful places in the world that this place. For what it offers Punta del Este the prices are crazy high like in Monaco, except that isnt Monaco.These fingers are nothing like in the internet pictures, they are rusty, not in sand, you cant take a photo there because is full of people.

Impressive Sculpture of a Hand emerging from the Sand. It is actually a Right Hand. The sculptor created a Left hand in Chile, so both hands together are said to be holding South America between them.

This is one of the classic and must see places of Punta del Este. Walk around and take pics of the famous "Dedos". There is a parking just a few meters from them. If you go in summer, do not forget to stay at the beach!

Nice sculpture. Worth visiting it if you are a tourist. Very clean and nice, even though lot of people spray it. The County makes a very good job on cleaning it and painting it every time.
