In 1820, the whaleship Essex was sunken by a large whale near the Mocha island, Chile. The survivors were later saved in Valparaiso to tell about the infamous whale among whale hunters who keeps sinking their ships on this side of the Pacific Ocean in their attempt to catch the large beast. The Essex's tragedy inspired Herman Melville to write the famous tale of "Moby Dick"
