Pichilemu, Beach resort city in central Chile

The coastal municipality stretches along the Pacific Ocean, featuring extensive dark sand beaches and rocky cliffs where waves reach heights of nine meters.

The territory, initially inhabited by Promaucae people, was assigned to Juan Gómez de Almagro by Pedro de Valdivia in 1541 before becoming an autonomous commune in 1891.

The Agustín Ross Cultural Centre, housed in a former casino building, displays regional artifacts and hosts exhibitions highlighting local traditions and craftsmanship.

Visitors can reach the city by taking a three-hour bus journey from Santiago, with regular departures from Terminal San Borja throughout the day.

The Punta de Lobos beach, designated as a World Surf Reserve, maintains constant left-breaking waves throughout the year, attracting international surfing competitions.
