Banco Pelay is a river beach located on the Uruguay River near Concepción del Uruguay in the Distrito Molino area of Argentina's Entre Ríos province. It is recognized as the longest river beach in South America, stretching for approximately five kilometers. The beach is characterized by its fine, golden-colored sands. Paddlers launching from Banco Pelay will be accessing the Uruguay River. The river's water level is subject to significant seasonal variation, with notable low-water periods that can affect conditions along the shore. The beach area is part of a larger municipal park system, and closures of associated facilities, including parking lots, can occur. The overall atmosphere is less bustling than other local beach areas, offering a more relaxed environment. A notable geographical feature for paddlers to explore is the nearby mouth of the Arroyo Molino, a natural channel located upstream from Banco Pelay. The area's historical significance includes the former presence of a Bailey bridge over the Arroyo Molino at Banco Pelay.
