The tourism board will be highlighting this at WTM London, along with the country’s off-the-beaten-track adventures and new sustainable and responsible tourism initiatives.
The solar eclipse will be most visible from Pucon, in the Araucania region in December next year, the tourism board said, with Chile’s dark skies making it one of the premier destinations for amateur and professional stargazers alike.
The eclipse coincides with the peak period of activity of the Geminid meteor shower, where observers have the chance to see 120 meteors per hour.
