 Surf Kayaking and Rafting (1 day)
|
 Alternatives
Pichilemu
Known as the surfing destination,
Pichilemu is a small beach for swimming about 129
kilometers to the south east from Santiago. Its
waters are cold during any season and the waves
are known to be high and regular.
Ritoque
Located to the south of
Quintero, Ritoque is a place characterized by its
large area of sand dunes. The beach is 12 kms long,
and is good for surfing and on shore fishing, especially
in the late afternoons.
The sand dunes in Ritoque have shells with traces
of the Ritoque culture.
Salinas de Pullay
Located to the north of
Papudo, this is a large beach with regular waves,
ideal for learning to surf with a kayak. Here you
can see the moon, sun, ocean, river, Andes Mountains,
the Longotoma sand dunes, the lagoon that forms
when the tide comes in, and many birds at the same
time. |
Kayaking or rafting in the waves can be as fun, with as
much adrenaline as in white water rivers. This program can
be done at any of the three beaches with the best conditions
on the central coast: Pichilemu, Ritoque, and the Salinas
de Pullay.
 Itinerary
Gathering of the group in Santiago and transfer in our vehicles
to the beach destination. This can be done at Pichilemu,
Salinas de Pullay or Ritoque, depending on the sea conditions
and time available for the day.
Once at our destination, we’ll prepare the equipment
that we’re using then do an introduction to the techniques
that will be used throughout the day: turning over, paddling,
weight balance, wave surfing, etc.).
Raft or kayak surfing can be done alternately. The program
is very flexible and the rest and lunch time can be decided
on by the group.
We will return shortly before sunset.
