Chiloe
Archipelago, the magic of traditional culture
In front of the smooth waters of Dalcahue channel we found the
perfect spot to build our sea kayaking base. The proximity to important
cultural centers, such as Dalcahue and its famous market, the village
of Curaco de Velez on Quinchao Island and San Javier church with its
cemetery at the edge of the sea, tempt us to immerse ourselves in
this rich coastal culture... |
