Itinerary and highlights
You'll be picked up from your hotel at 10am and head to the district of Callao. At 11:30am, you'll set sail to the islands of Callao. Admire the anchorage of yachts, warships and merchant ships in the bay of Callao as you go. During the trip, you'll go through the Camotal open where sea islands can be seen.
You'll pass by the San Lorenzo and Fronton islands, see fishing boats at work, various colonies of seabirds and the second largest colony of Humboldt penguins, as well as the Cavinzas Island. At 12pm, you'll arrive at the farthest point, Palomino Island, home to a large colony of seals (sea lions). Here, you can swim freely between them which, thanks to the absence of predators, is unforgettable.
At 1:30pm, you'll start your return passing by impressive cliffs and islets forms. A snack before arriving at the pier is served. You'll arrive at 3 pm and be taken back to your hotel.
