Viña de Mar

Back | Next Torres del Paine

One of Viña de Mar's beaches.

Not one of the world's best beaches by a long shot, but the beaches are big enough, the sand soft enough and the sun hot enough for desperate playaphiles, even if the sea is a bit chilly. Just 9kms [5mls] from Valparaiso and easily accessible by metro, Viña's casinos will also empty your wallet if you choose or questionably entertain you with their February 'International' Music Festival.

Further north are other less developed seaside resorts such as Reñaca, Maitencillo and Zapallar, as well as central Chile's best seafood restaurants in the fishing town of Concon.
