Sunburn, that is. Rub shoulders with the bronzed and beautiful on the white-sand beaches of ritzy, resorty Viña del Mar. But if you just don’t feel that glamorous when languishing in the sun, escape to the more secluded, yet just as beautiful, nearby beach towns of Reñaca, Concón, Quintero, and Zapallar. Or head south several kilometers and sunbathe on the shores of Algarrobo. The Chilean coast is never-ending, so even if you’re sauntering through the altiplano deserts of Norte Grande, you can catch some sun at the trendy beaches of Iquique. And if all of this endless frolicking in the clear blue waters still isn’t enough, head to Bahía Inglesa, a haven of unadulterated beach nirvana. The views, the fishing, the strolls, the kayaking, the camping, and the warm sands of the picturesque beach resort are unrivaled in all of Chile—except maybe by stunning sandy coves in the Parque Nacional Pan de Azúcar, where beaches are enclosed by luscious patches of forest. Finally, for those who want to be whisked away from it all, treat yourself to a trip across the Pacific and lounge on the beautiful white sands of Anakena.
