San Pedro de Atacama

San Pedro de Atacama er en småby nord i Chile, og et populært turistmål. Byen har rundt 1 000 fastboende (2005), og er hovedstaden i provinsen El Loa. Byen vokste frem, gjennom flere århundrer, rundt en oase i Atacamaørkenen. Den ligger øst i Antofagasta, omtrent 100 km sørøst for Calama og kobbergruven Chuquicamata, med utsikt mot vulkanen Licancabur. Byen har et viktig arkeologisk museum (Museo Arqueológico R. P. Gustavo Le Paige), som har en stor samling av mumier og andre fortidsminner. Ruiner i nærheten trekker til seg en økende strøm av turister som ønsker å lære mere om pre-columbianske kulturer. Andre populære turistaktiviteter i dette området er sandbrettkjøring og stjernetitting.

Byen ligger på om lag 2 400 meters høyde.
