DARWIN200 Global Voyage: Leg 14. Start sailing along the coast of the Attacama and end at jungleclad shores near Guyayauil. This adventurous journey passes quaint fishing villages, stunning beaches spanning kilometres and vast seabird colonies. Seldom explored, this remote coastline is one of South America’s best kept secrets. Make landfall as weather and circumstances allow. From deck, be awed by the breath-taking coastal scenery and keep watch for migratory whales!
