Originally it was not finished in stone and had three towers instead of one, but it has always maintained the European style in which it was designed. The Wulff Castle has served multiple purposes, such as a Naval and Maritime Museum, Museum of the Culture of the Sea and, at present, headquarters of the Heritage Unit of the Municipality of Vi\u00f1a del Mar and exhibition centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tuesday to Sunday: 10:00-13:30, 15:00-17:30 \/ Monday: Closed.

Although the most popular is <strong>Re\u00f1aca<\/strong> on the outskirts of Vi\u00f1a del Mar, there are others with great attractions to offer. An example is <strong>Cochoa<\/strong> beach, with dark sand and a beautiful viewpoint where you can watch sea lions on the rocks. Another is <strong>Caleta<\/strong> <strong>Abarca<\/strong>, probably the most frequented due to its central location and its proximity to the Flower Clock. During the summer it becomes one of those beaches where it is difficult to even find a place to put your parasol, so we recommend arriving early. However, a point in its favour are its beautiful gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to note that Vi\u00f1a del Mar is mainly a holiday destination, so in the summer season many people go to its beaches to cool off. However, some of them are not so crowded, so if you prefer quieter beaches, we suggest you go to <strong>Las Salinas <\/strong>or<strong> Los Marineros<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"18017\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/chile\/things-to-do-in-vina-del-mar\/attachment\/beaches-vina-del-mar\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,683\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"beaches-vina-del-mar\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"beaches vi\u00f1a del mar\" class=\"wp-image-18017\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/beaches-vina-del-mar.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Vi\u00f1a del Mar Beaches, Chile @Juan Cristofalo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stroll-along-Avenida-Peru-and-the-coastal-promenade\"><\/span>Stroll along Avenida Per\u00fa and the coastal promenade<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond simply sunbathing on the beaches, one of the nicest things to do in Vi\u00f1a del Mar is to walk along Avenida Per\u00fa and the seafront promenade. This stretch of coast is perfect for an evening stroll: you\u2019ll see locals jogging, walking their dogs and stopping to watch the waves crash over the rocks. On calm days, the sunsets here are gorgeous, with the sky turning pink over the Pacific and the silhouettes of ships in the distance. Along the way there are benches, viewpoints and a few caf\u00e9s and bars where you can sit down for an ice cream or a drink with sea views. It\u2019s an easy, low-effort plan that works at any time of year and gives you that \u201cGarden City\u201d vibe the town is famous for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enjoy-a-night-out-at-the-Municipal-Casino\"><\/span>Enjoy a night out at the Municipal Casino<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for something to do after dark, the Municipal Casino is one of Vi\u00f1a del Mar\u2019s most iconic buildings and a classic evening plan. Even if you\u2019re not really into gambling, it\u2019s worth going inside to see the elegant interior and have a drink while you soak up the atmosphere. You\u2019ll find slot machines, gaming tables and live music or shows on certain nights, plus nearby restaurants where you can round off the evening. Dress is usually smart-casual and the location, close to the waterfront, means you can combine a night at the casino with a walk along the coast before or after. For many visitors, it\u2019s a fun way to experience the more glamorous side of the city that locals talk about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-francisco-fonck-museum-of-history-and-archaeology\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Francisco-Fonck-Museum-of-History-and-Archaeology\"><\/span>Francisco Fonck Museum of History and Archaeology  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This museum honours Dr. Francisco Fonck Foveaux, a German doctor, explorer and politician with a passion for Chile and archaeology.

It brings together international artists such as Elton John, The Police, Ricky Martin and Bad Bunny, among many others. The event is held in the Quinta Vergara Amphitheatre and has a capacity of 15,000 people.

advantage of one of them to visit Valpara\u00edso. This lively city is built on 45 hills, so be prepared to discover one of the most colourful cities in the world on its constant slopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cerro Alegre <\/strong>and<strong> Cerro Concepci\u00f3n<\/strong>, two of the most visited hills in Valpara\u00edso, are a must on your walk around the city. In both neighbourhoods you&#8217;ll find the magnificent houses and colourful murals that give the city its unique personality. It is also essential to climb up to <strong>La Sebastiana<\/strong>, the house where Pablo Neruda lived. We say &#8220;climb&#8221; because it is in the upper part of Valpara\u00edso, so to get there you will have to go up a steep hill. However, the views of the sea and the whole city are worth the effort. Finally, we recommend visiting the <strong>port<\/strong> of Valpara\u00edso to enjoy its fishing atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"641\" data-attachment-id=\"18021\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/chile\/things-to-do-in-vina-del-mar\/attachment\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?fit=1024%2C641&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,641\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?fit=300%2C188&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?fit=1024%2C641&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?resize=1024%2C641&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"things to do valpara\u00edso chile \" class=\"wp-image-18021\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?resize=300%2C188&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/valparaiso-vina-del-mar-chile.jpeg?resize=768%2C481&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Valpara\u00edso near Vi\u00f1a del Mar, Chile @Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignwide\"><blockquote><p>Get to know Valpara\u00edso in more depth in our post <a href=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/chile\/things-to-do-in-valparaiso\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Things to do in Valpara\u00edso<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visit-the-Dunes-of-Concon\"><\/span>Visit the Dunes of Conc\u00f3n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Punta de Conc\u00f3n dune field <\/strong>is another spot you must not miss on your travel itinerary when you go to Vi\u00f1a del Mar.

It is a set of stable dunes that date back to the Quaternary Period (approximately 2 million years ago) and offers a beautiful view of the sea, safeguarded by rich mountains of sand. Here, tourists and professional athletes take advantage of this amazing orography to practice sandboarding (\u20ac25 for adults and free for children under 11 years of age).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
