Just an hour from Ica, Paracas is a significant coastal destination known for its diverse marine life, where you can explore both the red-sand beaches and the dramatic desert-meets-ocean geography. Day trips here center on the Ballestas Islands—often called the Galapagos of Peru—and the Paracas National Reserve, with most tours including a boat excursion to see the Candelabra geoglyph and colonies of sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and boobies. These excursions are especially great as they often include the boat departures and provide a licensed guide to explain the region's ancient culture and present-day ecological importance.
