Coastal Parks & Beaches

The Atacama coastline features a diverse range of environments, from the turquoise waters of Playa La Virgen to the protected ecosystems of the Llanos de Challe National Park. This selection includes the Humedal Desembocadura del Río Copiapó, a critical habitat for migratory birds, and the surf-ready waves of Playa Las Machas. These sites showcase the unique geological intersection of the world's driest desert and the Pacific Ocean, characterized by white-sand dunes and coastal wetlands.
