Robinson Crusoe Island Cruise Shuttles

An interesting body of land just a couple hundred miles from central Chile, Robinson Crusoe Island is home a charming community surrounded by the diverse ecology of Juan Fernandez National Park. A small city is located along the island’s northeast shore, alongside several resorts, restaurants and local shops, while the closest mainland cities are Valparaiso and San Antonio. Cruise ships may dock along the island’s north shore, though smaller boats and local fisherman can tender guests ashore from the mainland. With plenty of roads to drive down and pathways to hike across, guests can easily make adventures across the island simple, whether it be through simple private transfers via sedan, van and SUV perfect for exploring the island with freedom, or basic meet-and-greet services ranging from low-key local personal drivers to casual taxis best for keeping things fast and commitment-free.

Start exploring the area with grace, beginning with what makes the downtown area tick, whether that means enjoying local architecture such as the Robinson Crusoe United Methodist Church, or a handful of local hotels that offer swanky waterfront dining such as La Robinson Oceanic and Hotel Noi, plus the especially beautiful Crusoe Island Lodge and its jumbo patios shrouded by quiet jungle winds. While venturing across the centrally located Juan Fernandez National Park, plan to discover picturesque natural escapes as well, surreal corners ranging from quaint pine-lined beaches paralleled with dramatic cliffside slopes, to lush tropical paths perfect for exotic bird-watching. And for sunset enthusiasts, choose between one of two beachfronts to walk along at dusk, either the north side’s downtown shore, or the much quieter Playa El Arenal on the south side. Be sure to bring cash for attendance fees!
