Port description
Puerto Montt itself offers scant attractions for visitors apart from shingle-roofed houses around a flowered central square. The main draw here is the proximity to the lake and mountain region, and spectacular fjord cruising. The redwood cathedrl on the citys plaza is the citys oldest building. Puerto Montt is the transport hub and access point to the southern Lake District. Gret seafood and handicraft shops can be found there.
