Isla Negra & Las Conchitas Beach
When we undertake a trip, we usually hope to get to know the place with the help of a native so that they can guide us to corners that we could not reach on our own.
The famous Isla Negra is generally seen from Pablo Neruda’s house as a distant landscape. However, on this tour, Inspira Expeditions passengers will be able to get close to it and discover some of its treasures.
To reach this point, we will go down to the beach along an inland and wild path from the Kurt & Mariró house (there is also the possibility of accessing it from a public staircase) and we will enter rocky paths that, accompanied by the noise of the waves of a rough sea , they will guide us to the Island.
During the walk
we will see the houses located on the seafront, which in the 1940s were owned by certain “regular” characters at the social gatherings of the time.
Watching the waves break with their white foam on the dark rocks of the island is one of the highlights of our excursion. Those who wish to relive their childhood can explore the pools of water in search of crabs and starfish, always guided by the mother of all virtues: prudence. For their part, flora lovers will be able to discover coastal species with beautiful colors that grow “against all odds” between rocky surfaces and sandy terrain.
Las Conchitas Beach,
formerly known as the Ágatas beach (until these beautiful stones were sold out due to visitors who spent hours searching the sand to find one and take home this tiny, colorful and shiny trophy) will wait for us equipped with beach tarps, sunshades and refreshing drinks.
Once there, we can try the cold waters of the Pacific, enjoy the landscape or simply relax and unwind, as preferred. These beaches are not suitable for swimming due to the force of the waves, but it is precisely the intensity of this movement that makes this portion of the Pacific Ocean a great spectacle.
