Barrio San Pedro Pescador is a village and municipality in Chaco Province in northern Argentina,[1] located on the thin coastal levee of the Paraná River. The town is located in the Primero de Mayo Department and reports administratively to the Colonia Benitez municipality. It occupies the left side of the Chaco end of the General Manuel Belgrano Bridge, which links the province of Chaco with the city of Corrientes. The low-lying and floodable characteristics of the right bank of the Parana River are not conducive for human settlement, San Pedro Pescador being Chaco's only urban settlement located on the main channel of this river. Paradoxically the Parana River is the main source of livelihood (fishing) and its main threat, because of the periodic floods that force temporary abandonment by its inhabitants.
Boats on the Paraná river, main source of income in Barrio San Pedro Pescador.
Its inhabitants maintain educational, work or business links with both Gran Resistencia as well as Gran Corrientes. It was declared a Patrimonio Histórico, Cultural y Natural (Historical, Cultural and Natural Heritage)[2] because of its riverfront location, traditional fishing as the main breadwinner of its inhabitants and for being the head of the construction of the interprovincial bridge.
