Iquique, Chile was once the center of the mining of nitrates ( used
in explosives and fertilizer), Iquique still maintains the nostalgic mood
of that bygone era in many of the older buildings that have been preserved.
It was also the site of one of the largest naval battles in history. It
features a duty free shopping area and beautiful white sand beaches for
those who just want to relax. Just off the coast the sportsman will find
excellent salt water fishing. Iquique is located about 350 km. south of

of hotels, one sure to fit any taste or budget.
