Puerto Varas Travel Guide
Chile
Puerto Varas is a small city in southern Chile, with a population of 24,958. It is a practical base for exploring the surrounding region rather than a large urban centre.
Travellers arriving by air can use Puerto Varas Airport (PUX). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so nearby coastal beaches are not a defining part of a stay here.
