This enviable climate has allowed Arica to reap the benefits of a booming tourism industry; its beaches are the major attraction.
Arica is known the world-around as a surfer’s haven and plays host to international surfing and body boarding championships every year.
The city also acts as a port for cruise ships and services many cruise lines, Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruise Lines included.
Given the city’s current and continually increasing popularity, foreign investors in Chile already have a niche cut out for them here, and the market is eager to be better-serviced.
Surfing competitions hosted by Arica have grown in number and popularity year after year, as have the number of dates for which the city will be a port of call for tourist lines.
Anyone looking for short-term property rental, hotels, or any kind of shop or restaurant catering to this type of tourist will be welcomed and will see a great occupancy rate.
Moreover, for investors in the renewable energy industry, Chile’s Ministry of Mining and Energy (created in 2010) invested funds into the Arica 1 Project to increase the use of renewable resources to meet the demands of the mining industry.
The current government is aggressively trying to attract more investors into the renewable energy sector right now.
