We Ate Barnacles in Puerto Montt, Chile 🇨🇱 and Loved This Surprising Port
Puerto Montt, Chile completely surprised us and quickly became one of our favorite cruise ports in South America. 🇨🇱 From the colorful Angelmó market filled with fresh produce, seafood, fishing boats, artisan stalls, and tiny local cocinerías, to eating freshly cooked barnacles right beside a sea lion on the waterfront, this port turned into an unforgettable experience in so many unexpected ways. We wandered through the incredible local markets, explored the beautiful waterfront and ferry area, watched the fishing boats come and go, tried amazing Chilean dishes cooked in tiny family-run kitchens, and soaked in the atmosphere of a place that felt authentic, fascinating, and alive. Puerto Montt wasn’t just beautiful — it felt real. The smells, colors, people, and energy made this one of the most memorable cruise ports we’ve visited in Chile. If you’re cruising South America, don’t overlook Puerto Montt. There’s so much more here than many people realize.
