Nice house and beach
This is the house of poet Pablo Neruda, winner of a Nobel Prize. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the house is closed as well as the restaurant. However, we could observe the house from the beach. There is a sculpture of Neruda's face on a beach rock. The house looks very nice from the beach. Note: This beach is not for swimmers.

Bus to Isla Negra from Valparaiso
Most people come here by car but you can do a half-day trip via bus. From Valparaiso you take the bus from the terminal, buy the ticket at counter 8. They leave every hour. I took the bus at 8:05 am which allows you to be at the museum at 10 am. Tell the driver to stop in Isla Negra. The visit only takes an hour, then catch a bus back and you still have all afternoon to spend in Valpo. The trip is totally worth it, you can feel that this was Neruda's favourite house.
