Description

Our boat ride to the Palomino Islands will allow you to witness a fabulous natural spectacle, as well as offer you the opportunity to meet the Peruvian cold sea birds and friendly sea lions.
The guide will meet you at the detailed meeting point to start the Palomino Islands Sea Lion Swimming Tour.

From there, we will sail to the Palomino Islands, located off the coast of the Constitutional Province of Callao. On the way, we will stop at the anchorage of yachts, warships and merchant ships. The archipelago consists of four small islets located 6 miles west of the port city of Callao, at the western coast of San Lorenzo Island.

We will also pass by the San Lorenzo Island, an eight kilometers long island, the largest island of Peru.

Then we will head towards the Palomino Islands, two islands that are part of an ecosystem of their own where extraordinary fauna of marine mammals as sea lions, and local migratory birds coexists. This small group of islands just off the coast of Lima, offers visitors a glimpse of the rich sea life along Peru’s coastline.

Peru’s marine life includes sea lions, penguins, exotic birds and, if you’re lucky, even dolphins so make sure to bring your camera!

Due to the lack of predators it is possible to swim with sea lions and penguins at close range and in complete harmony. This will be a special experience, a 100% recommended to everyone!

Finally, we will start the return between islets, and the second largest Humboldt penguin colony in Peru, while a snack is served on board. After disembarking, you will be back to the meeting point.
