Watch the social life of Iquique fly by as you relax at Plaza Prat. Iquique's central square offers a spacious respite from the narrow, crowded streets that make up much of the city, serving as a social hub for young Chileans about to embark on a night out. The square houses several notable buildings, including the municipal theater and a clock tower that lights up into a beacon of color at night. Take a seat, compose yourself, and enjoy some quality people-watching. To visit Plaza Prat and other attractions in Iquique, use our Iquique online trip itinerary planner .

We liked the square of Iquique. Photos in the square clock and also at the front of the beautiful theatre can taking. On one side are variety of cafes, banks and commerce. What I liked most was the music that always surrounds the place. On that occasion street artists delighted us with Andean music, a delight for the ears. Missing only most ice cream shops wanted to go to one but can not find... that no more the wonderful rest.

Where to stay in Iquique

For dependable chain options, look for hotels located along the beachfront--a good area for anyone visiting Iquique to swim, surf, and paraglide. Hotels near the beach also tend to stay relatively expensive throughout the year, so if you're visiting on a budget, consider one of the city's many hostels. Rental apartments distributed across Iquique accommodate visitors looking for more privacy and space.
