Playa Cau Cau, Coastal beach in Horcón, Chile.

The beach features white sand shores bordered by eucalyptus forests and cliffs that extend along the central Chilean coastline.

The name Cau Cau originates from Mapudungun language word 'Kawkaw', referring to the common seagull that inhabits the area.

Local fishermen maintain their traditional practices at the nearby Horcón cove, supplying fresh seafood to visitors and residents.

The beach offers gentle waves and a gradual slope at the shoreline, making it suitable for swimming and water activities.

Natural tide pools form along the shore during low tide, revealing small marine creatures in their temporary water formations.
