Information about Pichilemu
Why Pichilemu? Pichilemu is a beach resort city and commune in central Chile and known as a Chile's unofficial surf capital. Sea related activities and relaxing are the only two things on the agenda here and when you're not enjoying sports such as windsurfing, kite-surfing and sailing you can chill on the black-sand beach or enjoy strolls along the palm-lined pathways photographing the beautiful colonial architecture in its small centre. The area offers a charming blend of countryside, forest, ocean and great local food.
