Zapallar is a lovely seaside village and exceptionally picturesque coastal town in central Chile accessable by freeway from Santiago in under 2 hours. The small resort town is very crowded in January and February, and mostly empty the rest of the year. It sits on a breathtaking coastline which is reminiscent of Big Sur in California and offers numerous panoramic vistas and hiking trails, wonderful seafront restaurants, and stunning views of the Pacific Ocean making landfall against various rocky outcrops. Ask Chileans where their best beach on the extensive Chilean coast is and they will undoubtedly name Zapallar. This beautiful beach lies on a small bay, enveloped by surrounding mountains and a magnificent rocky coastline. Lying on the clean, sandy beach, looking out at the bay and beyond to the magnificently blue Pacific Ocean, seeing and feeling the waves crashing on the beach, observing the fishermen's boats bobbing on the crystal water, one cannot imagine a more scenic setting. Zapallarinos are serious about preserving the beauty of their choice little spot in the world. With the exception of two parking lots, there are no roads around the entire circumference of the bay. Instead, there is the 'rambla,' a pathway for all to enjoy the scenery, taking in the exquisite landscape of the sea, rocks, and sky, serenaded not by traffic but by the crashing waves and overhead seabirds. There are benches along the entire path for sitting a while to soak in the beauty that you are immersed in. Read less
