Itinerary
Departing from your hotel in Puerto Varas, we sail heading to islets located in the northern coast of the Chiloé Island to see a colony of Magellanic and Humbolt Penguins. This is the only place in the Pacific Ocean where these species of penguins can be seen, because they migrate after summer in Chile. Then, we will continue our tour to the Isla Grande de Chiloé (Great Island of Chiloé) passing by Mar Brava, a large lonely beach from where we will see the ocean in all its splendor. After that, we will continue to Caulín, small fishing village where to enjoy several flora and fauna and colorful houses that make of this a unique place. At last, we will head to Ancud to visit its market. Return to Puerto Varas.
