Bahia Inglesa beach

Bahía Inglesa is a beach located near the port of Caldera. The Pacific Ocean off the coast of Chile is typically cold and stormy, but Bahía Inglesa is where this rule is defied. Natural stone "breakwaters" reliably protect this section of the coast from waves, allowing the temperature of the water in natural pools between the rocks to warm up more than in neighboring areas.

The beach, adjacent to the village bearing the same name, allows visitors to enjoy not only the amazingly clean white sand and the azure sea but also to take advantage of all the amenities offered by its proximity to hotels, shops, and restaurants. A well-maintained waterfront promenade stretches along the beach, complete with free parking nearby. A wooden boardwalk has been laid from the road to the beach for easy access. Near Bahía Inglesa Beach, there is a diving school where equipment is also available for rent. Bahía Inglesa boasts a very large selection of properties available for rent, catering to diverse preferences and needs.

When is the Best Time to Visit

Chile, with its extensive coastline along the Pacific Ocean, offers a plethora of beautiful beaches that are perfect for a vacation. The best time to visit Chile for a beach holiday largely depends on the region you plan to visit, but generally, the most ideal period is during the Chilean summer months.

• Central and Northern Chile: The prime time for beachgoers in these areas is from December to February. During these months, the weather is warm and sunny, making it perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and enjoying coastal activities.
• Southern Chile: For those looking to explore the southern beaches, the window is slightly shorter due to cooler climates. The best months are typically January and February.
• Off-Peak Travel: If you prefer fewer crowds and don't mind slightly cooler weather, consider visiting in the shoulder seasons of November or March. While the water may be brisk, the beaches are less crowded, and accommodation is often more affordable.

Regardless of when you choose to visit, Chile's diverse coastline ensures a memorable beach vacation filled with stunning scenery and unique cultural experiences.
