Known internationally by surfers, Pichilemu is not only a sportsmen's
paradise but it is also an attractive resort for sun worshippers,
beach lovers and entertainment. The beach exhibits a harmonious
combination of an aristocratic history, rural environment and
the growing modern lifestyle. Although the water during
the summer time is frigid, the beaches are packed with tourists
and young people in search of a good time. The best beach for
surfing, Punta de Lobos, is located several miles from the town
itself. Its waves are high and regular, but what also stands
out in this area is the beautiful view from the grandiose cliffs
and rocks.
