Practical
OSM position for Punta Arena village. Spanish Wikipedia: Punta Arena is the island's main tourist beach, with white sand, clear water, hostels and beach clubs; boats leave El Laguito, Castillogrande and the Muelle de La Bodeguita. The island has unpaved roads and motorbikes, and erosion groins along parts of the shore. Navigation: Club Náutico warns that passing Punta Arenas inside the bay you can go aground if you stray just outside the green channel buoys - visit by dinghy or water taxi rather than cutting the corner.
