During this coastal excursion to the Paracas National Reserve, visitors will be able to admire large groups of flamingos feeding near the sea.
To get a better view of these beautiful birds, we will take a short walk to a small viewpoint, where they can be seen more clearly. According to some historians, the colors of this bird inspired General San MartÃn, who fought for Peru’s independence, to create the red and white Peruvian flag when he first landed in the Bay of Paracas.
Then, we will visit the Paracas Interpretation Center, where we will receive a brief explanation about the flora and fauna found within the reserve. Here, you can see skeletons of some animals, such as whales, sea lions, penguins, and others.
