What you can expect

  • The adventure begins by meeting our team at one of our offices, where you can store your belongings if needed. From there, we'll travel to the lively port of Paracas, where you’ll be introduced to our knowledgeable bilingual guide. Before we set off, you'll receive important tips to enhance your experience.

    Once aboard our eco-friendly boats, we’ll explore the captivating bay of Paracas. Our first stop will be the impressive Candelabra of Paracas, a massive geoglyph towering 120 metres high, etched into a cliffside. Dive into the intriguing tales surrounding its origin, including theories suggesting extraterrestrial connections, predating the famous Nazca Lines!

    Next, we’ll venture beyond the bay to the stunning Ballestas Islands, famous for their rich wildlife. Get an up-close look at the various species inhabiting these islands, from playful sea lions to charming Humboldt penguins, along with numerous guano birds like guanays, boobies, pelicans, and tendrils. Our expert guide will enlighten you about the islands' fascinating history and their crucial role in the region's biodiversity.

    After enjoying the wildlife, we’ll return to the port, where you can take in the breathtaking coastal views and capture unforgettable moments in photos. Feel the refreshing sea breeze as we speed back to shore. Finally, we'll arrive at the port, filled with wonderful memories from your incredible experience at the Ballestas Islands.
