The Río Coig, also known as the Coyle River, is a significant Patagonian waterway flowing through the Santa Cruz Province of Argentina. It originates in Laguna La Esperanza near the border with Chile and the famed Ruta Nacional 40, eventually emptying into the Bahía Grande. The river's estuary is defined by Punta Norte and Punta Sur. The climate of the region is classified as cold semi-arid steppe. The river system includes distinct branches, such as the Brazo Sur del Río Coig (Southern Arm of the Coig River), which offers specific access and angling opportunities.
