Discover the dramatic scenery of Antofagasta, Chile, where the sienna sands of the Atacama Desert meet the turquoise Pacific. Antofagasta has geological wonders like La Portada, a natural arch that rises from the roiling sea. A top Chile cruise destination, visitors to Antofagasta can venture into the desert to see graceful flamingoes in salt flats or the famed Hand in the Desert sculpture. The Atacama is an excellent place to spot rare wildlife, such as guanacos and vicuñas. Antofagasta is a highlight of your Holland America cruise, with its prime location between the desert and ocean.
