Argentina in South America

Corrientes Province

Located in the southwest corner of Corrientes Province, where the magic Corrientes River meets the huge Parana, lies the picturesque town of Esquina.

It’s a town of Colonial architecture where Spanish and Italian construction styles prevail. The streets are planted with different species of trees, being the most important ones the Lapachos, Jacarandaes and Sauces.

Yearly average temperature is 26.2 Cº (80 Fº), with the average max being 33.5 Cº (95 Fº) in January and 19 Cº (66 Fº) in July. The minimun average is 14 Cº (57 Fº)in January and 8.6 Cº (48 Fº) in July.

The Parana and Corrientes Rivers create a delta where Dorados find excellent conditions to live and feed in winter. In the region surrounding the small town of Esquina, close to where the clear Corrientes flows into the Parana, we find the best and most varied spots to fly-fish for this extraordinary game fish.
