At the sea

The archipelago clear sea is a truly unforgettable experience for those who practice scuba diving or just enjoy snorkeling.

The Archipelago, away of the Humboldt Current, is watered by subantarctic and subtropical currents which determine the water temperature that goes up and down according to the season, during summer gets to 20 Celsius degrees. This temperature, nice for diving, allows a great biodiversity of fishes and a high amount of endemic species, which have a mayor bond with areas of Polynesia, being its origin in distant places such as New Zealand, Australia and Hawaii.

The volcanic origin of this Archipelago gave shape to a submarine landscape of singular geography. Low shelving, caves and cracks are good for the lives of many species: morays, pulps, lobsters, anemones gardens and actinias of a great variety of colors inhabit the rocky shapes of the bottom of this sea.

Walks and sport fishing

fotoThe fertile sea of Juan Fernandez Archipelago is an excellent place to enjoy sport fishing, being the main reason for many visitants to travel here, specially during the months of February, March and April.

Of course, the possibility to catch a good piece of fish, for example “vidriola”, is a great experience to remember. And if we add beautiful views and a fishing boat well equipped, you are ready to have a unique day.

We invite you to live this adventure with us in a comfortable boat, where you will experience the best fishing of the Chilean sea. You can bring your own equipment or rent it in the island.

Types of fishing

You can practice two types of fishing which our tourist guides will recommend you:

  • Trolling Fishing: While the boat is moving you can get your legendary piece: vidriolas, sierra, Juan Fernandez jurel and tuna fish, among others.
  • Button Fishing: An area to fish is chosen and on a stopped boat we wait for brecas, soles and corvinas.
