Surfing, hiking, and whales: adventure in the central-southern part of Chile

River, sea, and adrenaline

Start your Christmas day with an unforgettable experience of SUP sailing at the mouth of the Rapel River.

Then, continue your way to the best place in the world for surf, Pichilemu. You will find several schools that will give you everything you need to learn and do this sport which is full of adrenaline. You do not have to be an expert. You can enjoy the sea according to your knowledge level. Take a risk and dominate the waves!

Nature and waterfalls

On the second day, we recommend you start early for a whole day at the Radal Siete Tazas National Park. Located in the foothills of Los Andes, you will find multiple trails that take you to waterfalls and viewpoints of them.

Among the must-sees that you can visit are the “Bride’s Vail”, Salto La Leona, Laguna de las Ánimas, El Bolsón, and, of course, Siete Tazas, a place you will never forget.

Culture and wineOn day 3, give yourself a well-deserved rest discovering one of the great attractions of Chile: wine. To do this, head to Chillán and visit the vineyards from the 16^th century which are still in operation today.You should end the day with a wine tasting of ancestral wines and iconic grapevines from the area, such as Moscatel de Alejandría, País, and Cinsault. If you want to know more about the culture of the “Chilean countryside”, you can also learn about the handmade wickerwork made in the area or visit the San José de Ranquil Museum.

Avistamiento de Ballenas 

Para terminar el viaje, dirígete hacia la Caleta Chome, donde verás un espectáculo único: el nado de ballenas. 

Aprovecha la mañana para realizar una navegación guiada para ver a estos animales a corta distancia y sin disrumpir su entorno. Luego de esta navegación, puedes comer ir hacia la caleta de pescadores, donde podrás degustar la rica gastronomía local.
