Vina del Mar in Chile’s central region

Description: 120 km (74 miles) NW of Santiago; 8 km (5 miles) N of Valparaíso



Vina del Mar is one of Chile's most fashionable beach resorts and a great place to take a vacation if you want go to the beach and relax. The town was founded in 1874 as a weekend retreat and garden residence for the wealthy elite from Valparaíso and Santiago, and it has remained a top beach destination for Santiaguinos ever since. Most simply call the city "Viña"

The sight of Viña del Mar's attractive homes, manicured lawns, and golden beaches dotted with colourful surfboards is something of a contrast to the ramshackle streets of Valparaíso. There are plenty of fine beaches here.
Viña del Mar is a wonderfully relaxing place to spend a few days.

The city is divided into two sectors: the downtown and the beach-front Several downtown locations are desirable for their proximity to the lush Quaint Verger Park and shops, but it's about a 15-minute walk to the beach from here. The beach area is better suited for tourists, with plenty of hotels and restaurants.

One of the most famous beaches in Chile is also in the area; Reñaca Beach is visited by people from all over the world especially in the Chilean summer months which are November, December, January, Febuary and March.
