Boat Trip Details
Guests will meet at the Club Canottieri dock in Callao's La Punta Bay. After a safety briefing and receiving life jackets, the boat will depart for the Palomino Islands. The tour will navigate alongside San Lorenzo Island, Peru's largest island and home to a naval base. Following this, the boat will pass by Frontón Island, known for its old prison, and the Cavinzas Islands, which attract various seabird species including pelicans and Humboldt penguins.
The main attraction will be the Palomino Islands, where up to 8,000 sea lions can be seen. A 20-30 minute swimming session with the sea lions will be provided. The tour will conclude with a return to the starting point after approximately 3 to 4 hours.
