Ballestas Islands tour from Pisco CRUISESHIP TERMINAL

Your adventure begins right at San Martín Port, where we will collect you just metres from your ship’s gangway and transfer you comfortably to the Paracas tourist pier. From there, you’ll embark on a fascinating boat tour to the Ballestas Islands, with a scenic stop at the mysterious Candelabra geoglyph, etched into the coastal hillside. The Ballestas are part of a protected natural reserve and are home to an incredible variety of marine wildlife, including sea lions, Humboldt penguins, and dozens of seabird species. As this is a natural ecosystem, sightings may vary and are beyond our control. Entrance fee to the reserve is required and paid locally before departure. At the end of the tour, you may choose to explore Paracas town at your leisure or return with us on our private shuttle. Guests who wish to stay longer can easily return to port via the cruise shuttle, which operates every 30 minutes. Book with confidence, your comfort, safety, and timely return are our top priorities.
