When the early-morning fog shrouds misty-eyed and misunderstood Chiloé, it's immediately apparent something different this way comes. Isla Grande de Chiloé is the continent's fifth-largest island and is home to a fiercely independent, seafaring people.
Immediately apparent are changes in architecture and cuisine: tejuelas, the famous Chilote wood shingles; palafitos (houses mounted on stilts along the water's edge); the iconic wooden churches (16 of which are Unesco World Heritage sites); and the renowned meat, potato and seafood stew, curanto. A closer look reveals a rich spiritual culture that is based on a distinctive mythology of witchcraft, ghost ships and forest gnomes.
All of the above is weaved among landscapes that are wet, windswept and lush, with undulating hills, wild and remote national parks, and dense forests, giving Chiloé a distinct flavor unique in South America.
Chiloé Island is the largest island in Chile. It's a popular place to visit especially among Chileans who come to appreciate the island character, the rural landscape, the seafood and the Unesco churches. The best time to visit the island is from December to March. The island's tourist information has a great website in english with lots of information on sites, tours, excursions, dining, events, shopping etc.
See in Chiloé Island, Chile
=====================
There are quite a few local sites to be seen throughout Chiloe Island. Since it was separated by water from the mainland, many of the local traditions have been preserved here, instead of merging with the Spanish culture after the conquest.
The Unesco churches of Chiloe can be found mostly in the centre on the eastern side of the island. Built in the 18th and 19th centuries when Chiloé Archipelago was still a part of the Spanish Crown possessions, the churches represent the fusion of European Jesuit culture and local native peoples' skill and traditions: an excellent example of mestizo culture.
The Bay of Caulin offers the chance to see locals actively rounding up seaweed in their daily tasks, being collected by hand and with ox-carts.
The Bay of Ancud also offers great views and chances for kayaking.
An old Spanish battery can also be visited on the North side of the bay.
The Puñihuil Penguin colony is located on the north side of the island along the Pacific coast.
Chiloe's National Park and Ahuenca region are habitat for diverse and abundant wildlife.
Explore the islands of Lemuy, Quinchao and the peninsula of Rilan by bike or car to see some churches and enjoy the quiet rural life.

Chiloé Island (Isla de Chiloé), also known as Greater Island of Chiloé (Isla Grande de Chiloé), is the largest island of the Chiloé Archipelago off the coast of Chile, in the Pacific Ocean. The island is located in southern Chile, in the Los Lagos Region.
Chiloe is famous for myths and legends with roots in its native population but with some European influence. Even though the island was Christianized by Spanish conquerors (you can visit many of the Jesuit wooden churches all over the island) its inhabitants are also very superstitious. A singing, fair-haired beauty similar to the German Lorelei is called la pincoya. It is said that if she dances towards the coast the sea will bring a lot of fish. A ghost ship carrying the souls of wrecked sailors, similar to the Flying Dutchman, is called caleuche. And if someone tells you he or she was seduced in the forest, it might have been the fiura or the trauco, which is often blamed for venereal disease or an awkward pregnancy. A very pitiful figure is the invunche; as a baby his orifices, including his eyes, were closed and one leg was sewn to his back, so that he walks on three legs.

Un recorrido en coche y ferri por la Carretera Austral de Chile y la isla de Chiloe para explorar uno de los paisajes más sorprendentes y de difícil acceso de la Patagonia Chilena. A la Carretera Austral de Chile se la considera la carretera más espectacular de Sudamérica: lagos, ríos turbulentos, los Andes patagónicos y la presencia de campos de hielo y glaciares por todas partes. Un recorrido de más de 1000 km tan abrupto que muchos tramos hay que hacerlos en ferri. Comienza en Puerto Montt y discurre por lugares fantásticos como el parque nacional Pumalin, Chaiten, las termas del amarillo, el río Futaleufú, el parque nacional Queulat, Puerto Cisnes, Puerto Aysen, Cohaique, el lago General Carrera, las catedrales de marmol...etc. De camino a Chiloe el ferri pasa por la isla de Melinka, Puerto Gala y otros destinos hasta llegar a Chiloe donde finalmente terminamos nuestro recorrido.

Chile - Castro on Chiloé
Castro is the largest town on the island of Chiloé in Chile. Much of the traditional life of fishermen still can be found on Chiloé. Famous are the UNESCO listed wooden churches and its colorful wooden houses on poles.
We visited Castro during our overland trip from the Netherlands to South Africa and from there on to South America.
