Punta Arenas : Profile

Docking

The world's most southern city. Anchor near the jetty. The captain should go ashore for clearance (it is best to inform the port captain on your arrival by VHF). Yachts should inform the authorities of their intended route while in Chilean waters and make a daily report on VHF Ch 16.
