This Monday, the final meeting of the year of the Mixed Tourism Entity of Concordia (EMCONTUR) was held, in a day marked by announcements and activities, which symbolically kicked off its summer season, as weather conditions prevented the event originally scheduled for last Sunday from taking place.
The meeting served to highlight new acquisitions and services aimed at strengthening the city's security and tourism quality. Among the announcements, a semi-rigid boat acquired by the municipality to reinforce beach safety was presented, and official clothing was delivered to lifeguards, along with amphibious chairs by the Secretary of Health, Dr. Diego Sauré. These professionals are already joining the different beaches, ensuring a safe and inclusive season for residents and tourists.
EVENT RESCHEDULED: “I ENJOY Concordia”
The cultural and recreational activities that could not take place last Sunday and were suspended due to weather reasons, including gastronomic proposals, entrepreneurs, live music, and carnival presentations, will be held on Saturday, December 21, at 6:00 PM at the Costanera of Concordia, under the slogan “I enjoy Concordia”.
INNOVATIONS IN TOURISM SERVICES
The event was also an opportunity to announce important advances in service management. The Undersecretariat of Tourism reported that starting January 2, 2025, residents and tourists will be able to book and pay online for walking tours and departures of the “Tierra Mágica del Principito” Tourist Bus, the Museum Trail, as well as guided tours to the Castillo San Carlos, using Mercado Pago, a novelty that seeks to contribute to transparency, modernization, and improvement of service quality.
On the other hand, the launch of a tourist vessel in the binational reservoir of Salto Grande was announced, with a capacity for 90 passengers, which will begin operating on December 26, offering a new experience to enjoy the natural environment of Concordia.
A GROWING DESTINATION
With these advances, Concordia continues to position itself as a privileged destination, thanks to its offer of beaches on the Uruguay River, the Salto Grande Lake, and streams. From the Undersecretariat of Tourism, together with the support of Mayor Francisco Azcué and the private sector, the commitment to work for an integral destination that provides unique experiences to both tourists and residents is reaffirmed.
The summer season promises to be an opportunity to enjoy the natural and cultural riches of the city, with renewed services and attractions designed for all audiences.
