Paracas National Reserve

Ica, Peru

Paracas National Reserve is the first marine protected area in Perú, covering a stretch of desert coast and the cold sea beside it. The unique and dramatic landscape attracts many visitors, and wildlife, including flamingos, pelicans and sea lions. Beaches inside are also among the most beautiful in the country.

Travel tip: Stay on the viewpoints and marked tracks to protect the fragile desert crust. Be aware of the wind, specially after midday.
