What to expect

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

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