Paracas National Reserve

Paracas, the jewel of the Pacific coast!

Paracas Peninsula

Paracas is an excellent nature and biodiversity destination, it also offers cultural historical attractiveness and it is a good alternative to enjoy relaxing moments
The desert and the sea come together in spectacular landscapes in Paracas, in the department of Ica, just a few hours south from Lima. The cliffs that fringe the beaches are teeming with life, millions of birds that live here year-round, and thousands of others that fly from the northern hemisphere and from further south, ranging from guano birds to Humboldt penguins.

Venture just 3 hours south of Lima to the surprising and unique landscape of stark, coastal desert, and one of only a few red sand beaches in the world, surrounded by stunning turquoise water that is very nutrient-rich, sustaining a large variety of dolphins, whales, orcas, sea lions, Humboldt penguins, leatherback and hawksbill turtles, and flamingoes. This reserve also has one of the highest concentrations of sea birds in the world. And to mix in a bit of history, there is a museum inside the reserve with archaeological treasures from the Paracas, an ancient Andean civilization.
