About Floridablanca (Patagonia)
The Spanish settlement Nueva Colonia y Fuerte de Floridablanca was established in San Julian Bay in 1780 and abandoned four years later due to scurvy. The settlement was deliberately destroyed so the facilities could not be used by foreign powers. At present, this settlement is an archaeological site near Port San Julian, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina.
