A meteotsunami struck the coast of Santa Clara del Mar on January 12, 2026, causing one man's death and injuring dozens. The event, which raised water levels up to five meters in minutes, was captured live by Matías Alé's program in Mar del Plata. Experts attribute it to a meteotsunami, a type of wave driven by atmospheric changes.
From San Clemente to Mar del Plata, hundreds of workers walk the beach daily to sell churros. These vendors arrive from northern Argentina and organize with their own rules and hierarchies to survive on the coast.
