Descripción
At 7:30am you will be picked you up from your hotel in Paracas, to transfer to the main port where we will join with other participants, and be ready to embark on our two hour boat tour. You will be advised of the tour rules by our local guide. 20 minutes into the journey, we will stop in front of the beautiful figure of Candelabro that it is 180 meters high. Located on a hillside, its shape is stunning. Some believe that the figures was made by pirates, whilst others believe that it was made by the Nazca Civilization and that it represents a hallucinogenic variety of cactus. Whatever is it, it will be amazed by this ancient print. We then head direct to the arches to observe hundreds of birds: cormorants, Peruvian boobies, Inca tern, pelicans and many other endemic and migratory birds. In addition, we will spot isles filled with guano or bird droppings. Every couple of years, people collect and use this natural fertilizer. Finally, we return to the mainland where our tour ends.
