I booked 3 days of flights under supervision with Cristian. Although I'm a beginner at paragliding, Cristian gave me excellent advice to improve a lot, and I did amazing flights both from Alto Hospicio and Palo Buque. I felt very safe and had a great time, thank you very much Cristian !

Cavancha beach is the second one in the center of Iquique. It is highly recommended for young children and teenagers, and for adult and older people as well. The beach has different option to rent, such as umbrellas, beach and lounge chair, and so on. You also can buy a soda or a snack. Watch out with the sellers, because there are a lot of them. The only thing that I bought them is sods, because I wasn’t sure about the quality of cooked food. The best hours to get there is between 10 to 14 and 18 to 20h. Enjoy!

The village and factory were build to subtract and treat salpeter, and is thus located near the place where the stone containing saltpeter was found, in the middle of the desert. Once the natural saltpeter industry collapsed, due to synthetic fertilisers, the town was deserted, as its only reason for existence stopped. Since then the town has slowly decayed, although more recently the decay has been stopped, and some parts are partially renovated. It is thus a mining town preserved, although the housing for the miners themselves have collapsed and disappeared. But the other housing, the hotel, theatre, grocery store where they had to pay with fichas, as they weren't paid in money, but fiches that could only be spent in the town stores owned by the mine company. Also the factory buildings largely remain. Very well worth a few hours strolling through, in the part near the entrance typical objects used in the town are on display, and there is a decent amount of information also in English.

This is the street were during the saltpeter boom, the rich build their houses. All of wood, with porches and balconies, in a style that reminds one a bit of Charleston. In the middle of the street there are palm trees, and there are plenty of benches. Most of the houses are in decent condition, some are very nicely renovated. Sadly, due to the protests, some have tags and are partially boarded up. But still a lovely and very safe street to slowly walk through and enjoy the architecture. There are quite a few hostals, and pubs, as well as a few restaurants with terraces outside.
