San Sebastián Bay is located in the northern coast of Argentina's Tierra del Fuego Province. The bay is partly enclosed by the 17 km-long El Páramo spit that protrudes from the north.[1] The spit is made of sand and gravel.[1] There has been a trend of falling relative sea level over the last 7,000 years.[1] Tides in the bay are large.[1]
