Paddling near Ovalle, Coquimbo
Ovalle sits in the Limarí Valley of the Coquimbo Region, a semi-arid landscape shaped by two significant reservoirs — Embalse La Paloma and Embalse Recoleta — and the Limarí River, which reaches the coast through a recognized natural sanctuary wetland. Flatwater paddling on the reservoirs and guided kayak tours along the Limarí River near its coastal wetland are the area's main on-water activities.
