• Islas Ballestas - Guests will meet their local guide at 9:00 a.m. or upon disembarking from their cruise at San Martín Port. From there, they will be transported to the town of Paracas to join the rest of the group for a guided tour of the Ballestas Islands, conducted by a licensed local provider.
  During the tour, there will be a brief stop near the Paracas Peninsula to view the famous Candelabro geoglyph, an impressive figure carved into the hillside. Its origin remains a mystery, with several theories, some linking it to the Nazca Lines, but no conclusive evidence has been found.
  The tour continues around the Ballestas Islands, where visitors can observe seabirds and sea lions in their natural environment. The visit includes panoramic views of the three main islands and nearby rock formations, with potential views of natural caves, depending on weather and sea conditions.
• Paracas National Reserve - After returning to the port, guests will board a shared vehicle to continue the journey to the Paracas National Reserve. During the visit, they will stop at the Interpretation Center, which showcases photographs and information about the region’s wildlife, plant life, and key features of the Paracas Peninsula.
  The route then continues through the desert landscape of the reserve toward the coastal viewpoint known as La Catedral. This area was once home to a significant natural rock formation, which was affected by the 2007 earthquake. Today, the site offers panoramic views of the desert and ocean, as well as opportunities to observe seabirds from designated viewpoints.
  The tour also includes visits to Playa Roja and Lagunillas Beach, where there will be time to relax and purchase refreshments if available. At the end of the excursion, guests will be transferred back to San Martín Port to rejoin their cruise ship.
