Overview

We will arrive at one of the most beautiful and fascinating coastlines and marine reserves in Chile, possessing one of the sites with the greatest diversity of marine species, islands, resources, and geographies: "the borders of the Green North of Coquimbo, the Atacama Desert, and the bloom of the Humboldt Current." We will travel through the ancient coastal mountain range, crossing enigmatic and attractive natural spaces, historical sites, pre-Columbian settlements, and refuges controlled by feared descendants of the Changos indigenous people and pirates until we reach the paradise of fishermen, divers, and navigators in the sea-lion leather rafts, the most experienced of Chilean prehistory "Los Changos, Choros and Camanchacas." We will navigate the island Chañaral de Aceituno, the largest in the Humboldt Penguin Reserve and in Northern Chile, to see its surprising and varied fauna of cormorants, petrels, puffins, albatrosses, seagulls, vultures, otters, dolphins, whales, and penguins that live in cacti.
