Explore the breathtaking Ballestas Islands by boat
Enjoy great photo opportunities of Peru’s incredible wildlife in the islands which are often compared the Galápagos
We hope to spot seals, sea lions and penguins as they often play around our boat
Wildlife up close
This cluster of small islands are nicknamed ‘the Peruvian Galápagos’, because of the abundant marine ife. You may see a wide variety of wildlife, including seals, sea lions and Humboldt Penguins and get close enough to capture stunning photos from the boat. We also hope to spot seabirds like the Red-billed Inca Tern, the Peruvian Booby and the Peruvian Pelican who live here in great numbers.
This will be memorable, so bring that camera!
