DALCAHUE AND ENVIRONS 
Dalcahue is an important hub for communications and commerce amongst the nearby islands coast.
Since the 19th century the port of Dalcahue has been a staging post. A fair is held here every Sunday where craftsmen and people from surrounding islands and towns gather together to buy and sell their wares.
Everybody seems to land up in Dalcahue. Launches bring people from the Chauques islands, from the archipelago of Quinchao and from all the coastal areas of Quicaví, Tenaún, Tocoihue, Calen, San Juan, Quetalco and islands further afield.
In recent years the area has modernised its agricultural and maritime economy. Major businesses have invested in the marine sector resulting in a rapid growth of road transport and related activities.
