Las Aldas & La Gramita Beach Excursion

We'll pick you up at 2 pm at your hotel in Casma and drive to Las Aldas, one of the main archaeological complexes on the Peruvian coast.

Upon arrival, we'll go on a guided tour of Las Aldas to learn about the history of this site, with origins dated between 1925 and 1410 B.C., during the Late Archaic and Formative periods. You can see traces of this ancient civilization.

During the tour, we'll learn about the three functions of this complex as a ceremonial, administrative, and scientific center. We'll discover how marine resources were controlled and the rites that took place at its ancient astronomical observatory, located for night sky observation.

After visiting Las Aldas, we'll proceed to the nearby beach of La Gramita to enjoy the scenery of this picturesque fishing cove. Those who wish can also taste seafood and fresh fish dishes prepared with local products.

Finally, from La Gramita we'll return to your hotel in Casma, where arrival is scheduled for between 5 and 5:30 pm.
