perhaps they aren't showing up on gmaps, but i can't seem to find any islands off the coast of chile near santiago.
as for LA's islands, it's always been a bit surprising to me how low they seem to fly on the radar screen, at least out here in flyover country.
other than
"the freaking catalina wine mixer" i never hear anything about them, which seems a bit odd because they look pretty awesome and the US pacific coast is relatively sparse with offshore islands of decent size.
