Ballestas Islands - Ica
Get picked up from Lima by your guide and arrive at Paracas Tourist Marina for an excursion to Ballestas Islands, where a fibreglass slider ride will occur.
En-route see 'El Candelabro', a large geoglyph that serves as a lighthouse for sailors.
Continue to the Ballestas Islands, where you can view the sea lions in their natural habitat, who love to approach the tourist boats and jump around; this being a show that in itself fully justifies the visit, also appreciate the Humboldt penguins, guaneras birds, the guano exploitation area and stone forms caused by the erosion of wind and waves. Approximately 1 hour and 30 min on the sliders.
Depart to the province of Ica with your Ica tour guide.
Practice one of the fascinating sports in the huge dunes surrounding the Huacachina Lagoon area; the table on sand or popularly called sandboard, as well as strolling in sandboxes where you will experience a full rush of adrenaline.

Fuel up at a restaurant in Subtanjalla. Free time for lunch and photos.
