Ahoy Matey!!
Welcome to Quintay, Chile. A small fishing village of dirt roads, great friends, amazing seafood, man's best friend, a cute Brazillian teacher and of course a 100 yr old shipwreck. A 40-min drive south of Valpo along a windy coastal road worth riding in a sportscar than a $1.6CHP collectivo.
Yes..it was Paul's first dive but we were not worried...his instructor took good care of him 50ft under.
I'll let the pictures do justice but basically if you want to feel miles away from any civilization..go to Quintay!! No internet, only 4 restaurants and 1 cabanas to choose from. You can even try surfing but we recommend the diving. make sure you ONLY eat fish and crab because that's really why you go there. By far the best tasting and freshest fish you will ever have at ridiculous cheap prices. A weekend in search of good seafood turned into a great getaway. Check out Playa chica and Playa Grande while you are there. make the 20min hike along the ocean.. you will never want to leave. 3hrs door to door from Santiago. Don't waste your time in Valpo except to get some cheap grub.
