San Pedro city is 170 km NW of Buenos Aires city, and 130 km SE of Rosario (Santa Fe Province). Its population is about 40,000. The city is on the Paraná River's west side and has touristic value due to its history and natural places.

It is known for its delicious peaches, oranges, blueberries and sweet potatoes. Fishing on the Paraná is also a popular activity among tourists.
