4 Laguna San Rafael, Chile Port Reviews

This was listed as a port on our itinerary but was actually nothing but an anchorage. You could only take a boat to see a glacier. This was not made very clear and we, like several others we talked to, thought we could get off the ship and walk around the harbor. This was very poor communication by Oceania on what this stop was.

We boarded a catamaran in order to get closer to see giant glaciers in a place that very few or no human's live. No food or drink for a 31/2 hour trip

Anchored here again, and our first glacier of the trip. Got us excited to see more ice. Glad we saw it before Antartica. Would have been underwhelming otherwise.
