ITINERARY

At the indicated time we will pick you up from your hotel to transfer you to the dock of La Punta bay. From this place, we will begin the tour knowing the bay and La Punta beach, and El Camotal, part of Callao submerged in 1746. We will continue skirting San Lorenzo Island, where the naval base is located; El Frontón Island, where a maximum security prison was located until the 1980s; the Cabinzas Islands, inhabited by various guano birds; and finally we come to the central attraction, the Palomino Islands.

When we arrive at the Palomino Islands, we are located at the main point of our yacht tour, here we will observe a colony of approximately 8 thousand sea lions, thus surpassing the well-known Ballestas Islands in Paracas, in terms of the number of sea lions and having the advantage of being in the Callao region, just 30 minutes from the city center.
