HUANCHACO |
Huanchaco is an extraordinary place that will undoubtedly blow you mind. It is one of those lost paradises in the world that have subsisted throughout time.

It is a small bay watched from a crest of a mountain by an imposing colonial church, with a fascinating and centennial wharf. |

A picturesque fishing cove, Huanchaco preserves the daily use of the “little reed horse” (caballito de totora), the oldest marine ship of America and local fishermen maintain the uses and customs used from the beginning of man history, in this part of the South Pacific. |

The caballitos de totora are rafts woven from the totora reed in an art that has been handed down over generations. In Huanchaco, the sea raises its warm waves and embraces swimmers and surfers that furrow the waters, along with the millenary ships of the Chimus and the Incas.
