Live Cams in Coquimbo
Coquimbo, Chile
The Coquimbo Region in northern Chile sits along the Pacific Coast and is defined by clear desert skies, long beaches, and dramatic landscapes. To the north it borders the Atacama Region and to the south the Valparaíso Region, with Argentina’s Andes forming its eastern edge. The region’s administrative capital is La Serena, a city known for its wide avenues, colonial-style architecture, and relaxed coastal feel.La Serena is one of the country’s oldest cities and serves as the main hub for travellers. It’s also a gateway to some of the best sights in the region. In the city itself, the Monumental Lighthouse of La Serena (Faro Monumental de La Serena) stands near the beachfront. This tall, cream-and-red striped beacon is an iconic meeting point for locals and visitors alike and a nice spot for a stroll at sunset.Just south of La Serena is Coquimbo, another major city with a busy harbour and lively neighbourhoods. The port area blends maritime culture with seafood markets and casual cafés. Further inland, Ovalle sits amid valleys and hills, acting as a base for wine routes and tours into the foothills of the Andes.Natural attractions are a big draw throughout the region. Elqui Valley is famous for pisco vineyards and clear night skies, making it a strong choice for stargazing and visits to local distilleries. The coastal stretch has beaches at Tongoy and Guanaqueros, both good for swimming and relaxed days by the sea. To the north, Fray Jorge National Park preserves a rare fog-dependent forest that feels almost otherworldly in the midst of otherwise dry land.If you want to take in these sights and more from home, there are amazing live streaming webcams pointed at key spots in and around Coquimbo.
