Los Molles, Coastal settlement in Valparaíso Region, Chile.

Los Molles stretches along the Pacific coastline, featuring beaches, residential areas, and a small fishing port 140 kilometers from Valparaíso city.

The settlement emerged in the 1960s when fishing families from northern Chile established their homes, developing from a small fishing cove into a tourist destination.

Local fishermen maintain traditional fishing practices, contributing to the settlement's reputation for excellent seafood restaurants and maritime activities.

The settlement experiences a significant population increase during summer months, growing from 648 permanent residents to approximately 10,000 daily visitors.

The coastal strip between Los Molles and Pichidangui contains endangered species, including the Chilean lucumo tree and a native cactus known locally as chilenito.
