Activities at northern Peru’s beaches

Almost right on the equator, the waters of Peru’s northern coast are warm, making them perfect for all kinds of activities. From Zorritos to Punta Sal in Tumbes to the famous beach resorts of Mancora and Vichayito in Piura, northern Peru offers the perfect setting for enjoying an enormous variety of water sports, from relaxed pursuits like fishing for enormous grouper or diving in search of lovely sea horses, to surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing, which can be enjoyed on beaches with big waves and strong winds.    

                

One thing you really shouldn’t miss is whale watching: you will be amazed by the graceful movements of these marine giants. And if you’d like to swim with sea turtles, then head for Ñuro and share turquoise ocean waters with them. 

 

Without a doubt, life in northern Peru has more flavor.
