    Islas Ballestas

    Your experience begins with an early pickup from your hotel in Lima at 4:00 am, followed by a 3.5-hour drive along the scenic Pan-American Highway to the port of Paracas. Upon arrival, you will have time to enjoy a coffee at the pier before boarding a speedboat for a 2-hour excursion to the Ballestas Islands. During the boat ride, you will first see the mysterious “Candelabro” geoglyph etched into the sand dunes, and then continue toward the islands, home to an extraordinary variety of wildlife. Sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and thousands of seabirds can be observed in their natural habitat, making this a true highlight of Peru’s southern coast. After the tour, you will return to the pier with time to relax and explore before continuing with the rest of your program.
