Vallenar Travel Guide

Chile

Vallenar is a city of 44,895 people in northern Chile. It is set inland in the country’s semi-arid north, rather than directly on the coast, so it is better suited to a town visit than a beach holiday.

Travellers arriving by air use Vallenar Airport (VLR). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so coastal trips require travelling farther afield.
