Puerto Chacabuco, Chile cruise port guide
South of Puerto Montt, surrounded by majestic fjords, Puerto Chacabuco looks more like Norway than Northwest Patagonia. The town’s history as an important fishing village still holds true today. And with a population of just 1,200, Azamara® guests can expect a truly immersive experience on shore. Plunging waterfalls. Fathomless gorges. Dramatic coastlines. Puerto Chacabuco is your gateway to some of Chile’s most stunning natural wonders. Don’t miss the Río Simpson National Preserve: a protected park that boasts all three; plus, some of the best fly fishing in the world. A visit to Aiken del Sur Private Park promises the same, with an enchanting opportunity to get back to nature at serene Lake Riesco.
About Puerto Chacabuco, Chile
Puerto Chacabuco is a small port town at the head of the Aisén Fjord in Chilean Patagonia, serving as the main gateway to Laguna San Rafael National Park. It is a regular port of call on itineraries that cruise the Patagonian channels and Chilean fjords, and serves as the terminus of the Navimag ferry service from Puerto Montt.
The signature excursion is a boat journey to the San Rafael Glacier within the national park, where calving ice towers rise from a turquoise lagoon. Inland tours reach Coyhaique, the regional capital some 80 km away, and its surrounding Patagonian steppe and lake district. The suspension bridge linking Puerto Chacabuco to Puerto Aisén—Chile's longest—spans the Aisén River.
