At 7:00 AM after breakfast at the hotel we will depart for the 2-hour marine excursion to the Ballestas Islands. The islands are located 20 km. from the coast and are part of the Paracas National Reserve. On the way to the islands, we will observe the “Candelabro”, an enormous drawing in one of the biggest dunes of the reserve that was probably made by the ancient Incas. Once at the Ballestas Islands we will observe the fauna at their natural habitat, including sea lions, Humboldt penguins and different bird species. Now on the motorcycles, we will head south along the coast of the reserve following the isolated beaches of the Pacific Ocean for 80 km. The turquoise color of the ocean contrasts with the reddish, yellowish and brownish colors of the hills and dunes in this part of the desert. After a box lunch we will change course east and cross the desert for another 60 km. The hard-packed dirt road follows a sand dune chain that stretches over 15 miles. Those with the enough riding experience may enjoy riding over the 150 – 300 ft. tall sand dunes, roller coasting or simply “floating” on top of the harder layer of the dune surface. After a five-hour ride along the Paracas Reserve and Great Ica Desert we will arrive to our hotel in the city of Nazca. (B,D)
