Full Day at Ballestas Islands & Paracas Reserve

Between 6:30 and 7:30 in the morning, we will pick you up at your hotel in Ica and depart for the El Chaco pier in Paracas. Once we arrive at this boarding point, we will embark on a tour of the Ballestas Islands on board a motorboat. As we sail through this area of the Pacific Ocean, we will pass by emblematic places such as the Candelabro, an enigmatic 170-meter geoglyph. During the journey, which will last approximately two hours, we will also observe a great variety of native fauna, such as zarcillos, boobies, seagulls, pelicans, chuitas or red-headed gallinules. We will also see Humboldt penguins and sea lions. We will conclude the trip by returning to the El Chaco pier, where you will have free time to have breakfast or take a walk. Next, we will head to the Paracas National Reserve, where we will visit the viewpoints of La Catedral, Punta Santa María and Playa Roja. We will also stop at Lagunilla beach, where you can have lunch on your own, and at La Mina beach. Finally, at 4:30 pm we will be back in Ica.
