Mayoa is the capital of the province of Palena in the Los Lagos region of southern Chile, located on the east coast of the main island of the Chiloé Archipelago, facing the Gulf of Corcovado. The city is an important gateway to the Patagonia region of southern Chile and is surrounded by temperate rainforest and volcanic landscapes.
Mayoa is located in a temperate maritime climate zone at 42°S, with abundant annual rainfall and dense vegetation. The city is surrounded by natural landscapes such as the Honopilon Volcano and the famous Corcovado National Park nearby, with its unique biodiversity and primary forest resources.
As an agricultural and fishing center, Mayoa's economy is dominated by salmon farming, forestry and tourism. The region retains strong Chiloé cultural traditions and is known for its timber-framed churches and palafito (water stilt houses) architecture. The Mayoa Music Festival, held every February, is an important cultural event in southern Chile.
Visitors can tour the World Heritage Chiloé church complex, sample authentic seafood cuisine, or take a boat trip to Corcovado Bay to see sea lions and penguins. The city is also an important stopover on the way to Pumalín Park and the Keraték Glacier for ecotourism and outdoor adventures.
