Valdivia Location

-39.8336, -73.2154

-39.83358, -73.21542 View on OpenStreetMap →

Valdivia sits at -39.8336°N, 73.2154°W, on the coast of Chile. The marker on the map shows the spot the readings on this page come from. It usually sits a short distance from the town centre, out on the open water itself, so the numbers stay tied to the coast rather than a generic point inland.

Coastlines bend, headlands focus the water, and the temperature can run noticeably differently between two beaches that look close together on a map. Comparing nearby locations is a quick way to see how local geography is shaping the readings.
