The Poets’ Coastline is one of the country’s most popular destinations, combining beaches and tranquil landscapes a short distance from Santiago. This coastal route extends from Algarrobo to Santo Domingo, including Isla Negra, El Quisco, and Cartagena.
Its name is due to the fact that Pablo Neruda, Vicente Huidobro, Nicanor Parra, and many other writers found inspiration in this area. Today, their houses and museums are preserved as testimonies of their life and work, offering visitors a rich literary and heritage experience.
