Copec Los Vilos Ruta 5 Norte
Fuel Station
This Copec station sits right on Ruta 5 Norte in the coastal town of Los Vilos, about 220km north of Santiago. Clean facilities, reliable diesel and gasoline, plus basic snacks and drinks. The station sees heavy truck traffic but moves efficiently. Good spot to top off before heading inland toward the mining roads or continuing north to the Atacama.
Easy highway access, open 24/7. Los Vilos itself is a small fishing town with a few restaurants if you need a meal break. The coast here is rocky with decent seafood, but most overlanders just fuel up and keep moving.
