Description

ITINERARY: We begin the tour by picking you up from your hotel in Lima at 09:00 AM to board a bus bound for the coast of El Callao, heading toward San Lorenzo Island, passing through an area called El Camotal. We then arrive at the center of San Lorenzo Island and continue sailing around the southern side of the island. Next, we pass by El Frontón Island and finally reach the Palomino Islands, located behind San Lorenzo and El Frontón. This first part of the journey lasts about an hour and a half, during which a guide will provide informative commentary. At the Palomino Islands, there are between 5,000 and 8,000 sea lions. After observing the sea lions, the yacht will stop, and passengers will have the chance to swim with them. A crew member will demonstrate how to swim with the sea lions. There is a lounge area where passengers can change and shower in turns. The crew member will accompany and guide you in the water. There will be a 40-minute stop at the Palomino Islands (Sea Lions) for observation and swimming. Return to Lima, estimated arrival time: 02:00 PM to Miraflores district.
