Dear customer
On 15th of August 2007 the cities of Pisco, San Andres and Paracas have been devastated by earthquake strength 7.5 Richter scale, the entire city of Paracas, San Andres and also 70 % of the buildings in Pisco have been destroyed. More than 400 people died in the ruins of Pisco, more than 1000 were hurt and over 80,000 people lost their homes. Needles to say that the entire hotel and tourism infrastructure of Pisco/Paracas was destroyed. Therefore we can not offer trips to Paracas for an unforeseeable time. We will initiate trips to the area as soon as we can provide acceptable services again.
Thank you very much for you patience. |

Diving spots in
the Paracas National Reserve
Diving in the Paracas National Reserve opens up a new dimension, which so far has been explored only by a handful of recreational divers. Mendieta Beach and Zarate Island are Kelp forest habitats, offering you an enchanted submersion between the giant algae softly moving in
the wave’s rhythm. Deep divers should visit the Giants game, an underwater garden formed by huge bolders overgrown with macro algae and sea anemones whose ncountable micro caves and canyonlike hallways are home to a great number of fish. When visiting the sea lion rock in Mendieta beach its more than probable to meat the curious mammals on the sandy bottom and ship wreck fans should not miss out on the sunken guano ship in front of the northern Chincha island. See below for detailed information on each dive site:
