San Blas Expedition
1827 Cisplatine War battle
The San Blas Expedition was an incursion by the Empire of Brazil during the Cisplatine War on the San Blas Bay to the southeast of Buenos Aires amidst the Brazilian blockade of the Río de la Plata. The expedition was a failure mainly due to a combination of a shallow seafloor and strong tides, leading to massive losses amongst the Brazilian force.
