The 1922 Vallenar earthquake occurred with a moment magnitude of 8.5–8.6 and a tsunami magnitude of 8.7 in the Atacama Region of Chile, near the border with Argentina on 11 November at 04:32 UTC.[3][4][1][2] It triggered a destructive tsunami that caused significant damage to the coast of Chile and was observed as far away as Australia.
