    Excellent organised trip with very friendly and caring staff. The private translation of Camila was much appreciated as we were the only not Spanish speaking guests.

    Wonderful tour despite the rainy weather, excellent service on board, just one detail: boarding takes place at the Emporcha dock and not the one indicated on the purchase ticket. Within this dock you can leave your private vehicle in a safe place and pay a daily fee of around $8,000 Chilean pesos.

Puerto Chacabuco is a tranquil port town in the heart of northern Chilean Patagonia. Surrounded by dramatic fjords, lush forests, and snow-capped mountains, it is the perfect gateway for exploring the wild, untouched beauty of the Aysén region. From sailing through serene waters to hiking amid nature, this destination promises adventure and relaxation for every traveler.

A Brief History

Originally, the nearby port of Puerto Aysén served as the region’s main harbor, but after a massive flood in the 1990s, Puerto Chacabuco took over as the new hub for maritime activity. Today, it is a crucial stop for travelers eager to connect with local culture and nature.

Best Time to Visit

While the area boasts breathtaking landscapes year-round, the best period to visit is between November and March. During these months, the weather is most pleasant, with mild temperatures and longer days—ideal for outdoor excursions and boat trips.

How do I get to Puerto Chacabuco?

The port is accessible by road from Coyhaique, the region's main city, and by sea on cruise ships and ferries. Many visitors arrive as part of a guided tour, making transportation simple and convenient.

What can I do there?

Popular activities include boat tours through the fjords, visiting the spectacular Aikén del Sur Park, and discovering local seafood cuisine. Nature lovers will find great hiking trails and chances to spot unique Patagonian wildlife.
