Résumé:Hundreds of kilometers of the vast, sandy and soft sloping beaches of the Buenos Aires coast played a key role in the transformation of that coastal front into a tourist spot. This article will deal with the steady, though not linear, process that made up the holiday area of Buenos Aires province.

Here, we will focus on the 1920-40 period which, through the social and cultural transformations, paved the way for the arousal of tourist activities and the granting of territories for that aim, resulting in a process of mutual configuration. As a consequence of that process, the open and full of dunes Buenos Aires seaside became a touring landscape.
