Queilen Tours and Activities | Discover the Best of Chiloé

Queilen is a peaceful coastal town tucked away on the southeastern shores of Chiloé Island in Chile. Surrounded by serene landscapes, shimmering sea views, and a slow-paced lifestyle, this is the perfect spot to unwind and experience authentic Chilote culture. Whether you're seeking natural beauty, unique traditions, or delicious local cuisine, you'll find plenty to enjoy here.

A glimpse into its past

Founded in the late 18th century, this charming village has long been shaped by its close connection to the sea. For generations, fishing and agriculture have been the backbone of life here, with locals maintaining age-old Chilote customs and folk traditions that can still be seen today.

Best time to visit

The mild summer months from December to March offer the most pleasant weather, with clear skies and gentle breezes—perfect for exploring the coastline and nearby islets. Outside of summer, expect cooler temperatures and occasional rainfall that add a touch of mystique to the landscape.

How do I get there?

The easiest way to reach the town is by taking a bus or car from Castro, the island's main city. There are regular boat services connecting the area to other coastal towns, making it accessible yet still delightfully off the beaten path.
