Caleta de Zapallar
Caleta de Zapallar Review
At the south end of Playa Zapallar is a rocky point that holds Caleta de Zapallar, where local fisherfolk unload their boats, sell their catch, and settle in for dominoes. The view of the beach from the caleta and adjacent restaurant, El Chiringuito, is simply gorgeous. On the other side of the point, a trail leads over the rocks to rugged but equally impressive views.
