​The city once hosted tattered sailors, miners, seal hunters, starving pioneers and wealthy dandies of the wool boom. Today, Punta Arenas became the urban, commercial, cultural and social center that spread all over Magallanes, geared toward tourism and industry. It's a cosmopolitan city, with its surprisingly energetic nightclubs and people from all profiles mixed such as Chilean air force personnel, centolla (king crab) fishermen and suit-clad businessmen.
