Your 20-Day Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia Itinerary
Day 1 - Valparaiso, Chile: Board the yacht at Valparaiso's historic waterfront, meet the crew and become familiar with the extensive onboard facilities. Following safety preparations and final provisioning, leave the Chilean port behind and cruise north along the rugged central coastline. The first evening introduces the yacht's refined dining and hospitality as the voyage continues overnight toward Coquimbo.
Day 2 - Coquimbo, Chile: Arrive in this characterful fishing and maritime centre, with time to explore the harbour, nearby beaches or neighbouring La Serena. Guests may experience local architecture and coastal culture or relax aboard before the yacht departs in the evening. An extended northern passage begins toward the dramatic Atacama coast and Arica.

Personalized meals and attentive service accompany the offshore passage toward Chile's northern frontier.
Day 4 - Arica, Chile: Reach Chile's northernmost coastal city and explore its historic centre, the commanding Morro de Arica and the surrounding desert landscape. The contrast between the Pacific Ocean and the Atacama environment gives this stop a compelling identity. Return aboard for an overnight international passage toward Ilo in southern Peru.
Day 5 - Ilo, Peru: Enter Peruvian waters and visit a compact port surrounded by stark coastal scenery. Local markets, waterfront districts and elevated viewpoints offer an introduction to southern Peru's maritime character.

Day 10 - At Sea, Peru to Ecuador: Cruise offshore from northern Peru toward Ecuador, crossing the broader Gulf of Guayaquil region.

Day 12 - Isla de la Plata, Ecuador: Discover an island known for dramatic cliffs, seabirds and productive surrounding waters. Subject to local regulations and sea conditions, enjoy guided tender exploration, swimming or snorkelling. An anchorage near the island provides an atmospheric conclusion to the day before cruising onward toward Manta.

This stop introduces a relaxed tempo before the longer international passage ahead. Return aboard for sunset hospitality and begin navigating toward the Ecuador-Colombia maritime boundary.
Day 15 - At Sea, Ecuador to Colombia: Cross north into Colombian waters while enjoying a full day aboard. The yacht's generous interior lounges, outdoor cinema, pool, jacuzzi and wellness amenities make the substantial passage part of the experience rather than simply transit. The crew continues overnight toward Colombia's southern Pacific coast.
Day 16 - Tumaco, Colombia: Arrive at Colombia's southern Pacific gateway and encounter the region's distinctive coastal identity and culture. A carefully coordinated shore visit can be combined with lunch or relaxation aboard. Later, follow the Colombian coast toward the biologically rich waters surrounding Gorgona Island.
