Giro veloce in bici da La Serena a Coquimbo

Roll out from the mellow coastal vibes of La Serena and set your sights on Coquimbo, a historic port just down the road. This 15.5 km ride is mostly flat, with a few gentle climbs—perfect for a relaxed outing. The route is cyclist-friendly, sticking mostly to paved surfaces (look forward to long stretches of smooth cycleways and quiet roads).

Along the way, you’ll get glimpses of the shimmering Pacific, palm-lined boulevards, and perhaps a sea breeze or two.
