Guided Kayaking on Lake Cucao – Chiloé Island
When the English naturalist Charles Darwin visited the village of Cucao in 1835, he crossed the entire length of Lake Cucao aboard a small traditional boat known as a bongo.

This guided kayak tour on Lake Cucao follows Darwin’s historic route, offering visitors a unique opportunity to discover how the local inhabitants once traveled through this remote area before roads and bridges connected the region.
