Zapallar/Cachagua

The exclusive Zapallar bay displays big houses of unique design, many with Italian style, hugged by beautiful gardens and evergreen forests on the surrounding hills. Cachagua is one of the most beautiful beaches in the country, a vacation retreat for Chilean high society, with its beautiful long beach and the Cachagua islet just across, where hundreds of penguins nest and is also home to marine mammals and seabirds. If you are looking for awesome waves, the neighboring village of Maitencillo is the spot for surfers to go. Don't miss the Best restaurant in the bay, Chiringuito or Cesar, they are a must.
