Playa Chacaya is a remote and rugged beach located approximately 82 kilometers north of the city of Antofagasta in the Mejillones commune of Chile's Antofagasta Region. The beach is situated about 6 kilometers from the Balneario Hornito area and 60 kilometers from the Andrés Sabella Airport. This coastal area is characterized by its dramatic sunsets, rocky outcrops, and a sense of isolation, making it a destination for anglers seeking a quiet and disconnected fishing experience away from urban noise. The shoreline features a mix of rock formations and sandy stretches, with homes in the area built directly onto the rocky terrain. The local infrastructure is basic, with no municipal water supply; properties rely on private water tanks serviced by delivery trucks.
