Palomino Islands

Via a number of other islands named San Lorenzo and Frontón you sail from the port city of Callao (attached to the city of Lima) to Islas Palomino. This is a boat trip of about an hour and a half. Your guide will tell you about the animal life in this area. The guide will also tell you about the history of the islands of San Lorenzo (where a Peruvian naval base is located) and Frontón (where a prison used to be located and where Maoist members who were arrested during the terror of the Shining Path in the eighties and early nineties were held).

Once you arrive at Islas Palomino, you will receive instructions from the guide on what to look out for while swimming with the sea lions. You should not approach the animals too closely and you are absolutely not allowed to touch them.

Tip: The starting point of this excursion is relatively close to the airport. It is possible to drive straight to the airport after this excursion. This saves travel time. You will not return to your hotel after the excursion, you will take your large luggage with you immediately. Our driver will then take care of your luggage during the excursion.
