The Parque Nacional Fray Jorge is unusual in that it is home to a luxuriant forest within the arid region of the Norte Chico. The camanchaca, a mist which forms over the Pacific Ocean, condenses as it meets the cliffs on the coast, creating a ball of water which irrigates the vegetation here. The fauna is typical of wet regions.
