- Muelle Papudo - The boat tour sets off from the Papudo fishing cove, where the captain gives a brief safety briefing before heading offshore towards Lobos Island. During the journey, travelers will navigate through rocky coastal areas and open waters teeming with marine life, providing excellent opportunities to appreciate the coastal scenery from the sea.
As the boat nears the island, the speed is reduced to ensure safe and respectful wildlife observation. It is common to see sea lion families resting on the rocks, along with a diverse array of seabirds. With some luck and depending on the season, Humboldt penguins may also be spotted in their natural habitat. After time for observation and photographs, the boat returns to the cove, concluding the experience.
- Playa Chica - Following the boat tour, travelers can unwind at Papudo’s small beach. Here, they can enjoy lunch or a light snack in the area (not included), with local dining options available to savor the coastal atmosphere at a leisurely pace.
Afterward, there is free time to explore the area, visit small shops or stalls offering local souvenirs, handicrafts, and regional products. Those who prefer can simply relax on the beach, stroll along the shore, and take photos before moving on to the next activity of the tour.
- Playa Los Lilenes - The horseback riding experience takes place along the coastal area of Los Lilenes Beach, where travelers will ride calm, well-trained horses guided by local staff.

During the experience, travelers will enjoy a peaceful and scenic ride, suitable for both beginners and those with prior riding experience.
