Chile's most renowned kite destination on the central Pacific coast, known for consistent wind and a mix of wave riding and flat water in front of a small beach town. The Chilean season runs from September to March with the strongest, steadiest wind from November to February, driven by the Papagayo and Norte wind systems. Pichilemu and Punta de Lobos an hour south add powerful waves for the wave riders; cool water, so bring a wetsuit.
