Excursion to Ballestas Islands & Paracas National Park
Ballestas islands is an excellent opportunity to see large families of over 100 sea lions sleeping on the shores, basking in the sun on the rocks, or barking loudly in efforts to protect their territory. Spot cormorants, the Peruvian booby, and Peruvian pelican as well as other impressive varieties of sea bird species and Humboldt penguins nesting together in small groups. Watch the waters for dolphins. Apart from the abundant marine and birdlife found here, the Ballestas Islands are also very well known for the guano (seabird droppings) deposited on the island over thousands of years which creates a natural reserve of nitrogen-rich fertilizer over 50 meters deep in some areas. The guano came to be Peru’s #1 export in the mid-19th century however today the extraction of guano has been regulated to every 10 years. The return trip to Paracas is a quick, very windy, direct boat ride to the dock. Upon arrival at 10:00 am, your first tour comes to an end. You should have some time to take photos of the friendly pelicans that hang out on the shoreline beside the dock. Then make your way to the same departure point for your next tour. Duration: 2 hours Admission
