Swim with sea turtles at Vichayito Beach in Los Órganos on this unique excursion from Máncora. An experience you won't forget!
Description
The tour begins with a pickup from Hotel Máncora y Pocitas, followed by a bus ride to the Máncora dock. Participants will then embark on a boat ride along the northern coast of Peru.
The boat will sail along Los Órganos y Vichayito beach, providing views of the coastline and the extensive sandy shores of the Pacific Ocean. Along the journey, conditions permitting, participants may spot sea lions and other wildlife.
After a briefing on safety protocols and securing life jackets, participants will swim in the Pacific to experience the highlight of the day: swimming with Peruvian sea turtles. Los Órganos y Vichayito beach is known for providing optimal conditions for these marine creatures in a natural, undisturbed ecosystem.
To see the turtles up close, it is essential to avoid sudden movements and maintain a respectful distance. These animals can weigh up to 200 kg (440 lbs).
Following the swim, the group will board the boat again and return to the original departure point to conclude the tour.
