Los Molles

Los Molles is a small coastal town in central Chile. It sits along the Pacific coastline within the Petorca region and serves as a gateway to nearby beaches and rocky shores. The area is primarily a surf and fishing destination, with limited scuba diving activity directly in town. Nearby access to the central Chilean coast offers opportunities for day trips to rocky reefs and coastal sites along the South Pacific, but actual dive centers and notable dive sites are scarce in town. For divers, the closest practical options are training or shore dives offered by a nearby center in the wider region, and freshwater options are not available in the immediate vicinity.
