Arica is nestled along Chile's Pacific coast. The city is the gateway to El Morro. To the south are the dunes of the Atacama Desert. Many Bolivians come to Arica, largely for its splendid beaches. Visit the nearby citrus and olive groves. The celebrated Pan-American Highway also makes Arica a hub for transportation and trade.
Enjoyed this port more than I expected. Surrounded by desert, this little town is a nice oasis. Walked down the beach then hired a taxi for $20 to take us to the top of the hill. Great views.

Very interesting! We took an open air bus along the coast to visit the caves, then up on the hill for a great overlook. The town is friendly with lots of shops and restaurants. The woman in the tourist information office was especially helpful.

We never made it to this city due to propellor problems. We had to skip it so repairs could be made in Lima.
