Palomino Islands Boat Tour

Enjoy a boat trip to the Palomino Islands! On your way out to this paradise in the Pacific, pass by other stunning islands and, once you arrive, jump in the refreshing waters to swim alongside sea lions. The Palomino Islands are located off the coast of Lima from La Punta.

On your way, you'll stop at San Lorenzo Island, which is eight kilometers long. You'll then visit the Palomino Islands, two islands that are part of a special ecosystem, where an extraordinary fauna of sea lions, local and migratory birds coexist.

On the way back you'll pass among islets inhabited by guano birds and the second-largest colony of Humboldt penguins in Peru.
