Highlights

Join us on a fantastic boat tour to discover the stunning Ballestas Islands and the wonders of Paracas. Our first major highlight will be stopping right in front of the giant El Candelabro geoglyph, an ancient mystery carved into the desert hills by a pre-Inca civilization. Then, we’ll sail out into the Pacific Ocean to explore this vibrant marine sanctuary, where you'll get up close with sea lion colonies, Humboldt penguins, and thousands of seabirds in their natural habitat. A thrilling adventure blending rich history, coastal scenery, and amazing wildlife.


Discover this wonder of the nature with us!

    After boarding, we will go to Ballestas Islands, located 30 minutes away from the coast of Paracas. On the way you can see the still inexplicable lines drawn in the sand forming a candelabrum. This mysterious geoglyph measures 590 ft., and is circa 2,500 years old.
  • Islas Ballestas

    We will continue the tour until reach the islands. It is a natural reserve of beautiful geological formations, impressive fauna where you will find sea lions, penguins and birds such as the pelican, among other species found in the archipelago. Due to the number of birds that lives in the area, and with the migratory ones, these islands have the best natural fertilizer in the world: the guano. Peru used the guano to improve the economy, between 1845 and 1866. At the end of the tour, we will return to the dock, and you will be transferred back to your hotel in Paracas.
