Do Iguazu Falls have lockers, wi-fi and restrooms?

Where to stash your bag, find a restroom and charge your phone on both sides
Arriving at Iguazu Falls with a suitcase, a backpack and a phone almost out of battery? Good news: both parks, the Brazilian and the Argentine, have lockers, restrooms and food. Price, locker size and location differ. Here is what each side offers — plus the arrive-early trick on the Argentine side.
Direct answer: Yes. Both sides have lockers, restrooms and food. On the Brazilian side (Urbia), the locker is at the Visitor Center and costs R$ 45. On the Argentine side (Iguazú Argentina), storage is at the entrance, with large and small lockers plus free wi-fi in some zones — arrive early, spots run out.
Brazilian side (Iguaçu National Park)
The luggage lockers are at the Visitor Center, before you board the internal bus. Each compartment is 85 cm high × 55 cm wide × 65 cm deep and costs R$ 45, bookable on the official site (tickets.cataratasdoiguacu.com.br) or on the day. One thing to know: because of where they sit, you only reach the locker again on your way out, after returning by bus from the trail — so store what you will not need on the walk.
The Visitor Center also has restrooms, a snack bar, a currency exchange and a shop. For a meal, the restaurants running today are Cocar and Canoas Mirim (the old Porto Canoas is closed for renovation). For accessibility, the park lends free standard wheelchairs on request at the Visitor Center, plus adapted transport and main viewpoints. The Brazilian side does not advertise public wi-fi — bring a power bank and do not count on internet along the way.
Argentine side (Iguazú National Park)
The luggage storage sits right at the entrance, next to the ticket booths and the souvenir shop. Lockers come in two sizes — large (fits a carry-on plus a backpack) and small (fits a backpack). You rent one by paying at the shop's cashier, who hands over a padlock and key; it opens at 8:00 am and the key must be returned by 6:00 pm. Numbers are limited, so arrive early to be sure. For large luggage that will not fit a locker, there is a camera-monitored room with a key — ask the Iguazú Argentina staff as you enter the Área Cataratas. Before storing, you can use the restrooms with changing areas to change clothes.
The Argentine side offers free wi-fi zones, drinking water across all service areas, a Banco Nación (Red Link) ATM at the access gate, and plenty of food — kiosks, cafés and restaurants such as La Selva and Fortín Cataratas. For accessibility, there are wheelchairs, a 4-seat electric cart and baby strollers.
