The beautiful beaches are one of the tourist resources that the district of Ocucaje (Ica) has and among them a very special one is Punta Lomitas beach.

Located 63 km from the capital of the Ocucaje district, is the famous arch of Punta Lomitas, a landmark that gives the entrance to a tremendous beach.

This beach has various attractions inside, arches, caves, arches and rocks where you can find a wide variety of fish and shellfish. This place is difficult to access, but the beautiful Punta Lomitas beach is worth it. It hides landscapes that seem to come out of a surreal painting, among which are dunes, tunnels, caves and rock formations that offer us the most bizarre landscape on the seashore.

This peaceful and beautiful beach also has beautiful and spectacular sea lions that come ashore during mating times to provide a wonderful show.

In the waters of this beach, the finest species of fish in the world are extracted, such as cojinova, sole, corvina, among others.

Best Trekking and Tours in Peru

Many are the routes that take you to Machu Picchu, but none is like the Inca Trail tours, the most famous pedestrian path in the Americas. After flying from the capital of Peru, Lima, you will arrive in Cusco to walk for four days along a path through forests and dense fog, millenary stone steps and discovering the ruins of ancient fortifications and Inca cities, and all the time enjoying majestic views.

 

If you want to visit Machu Picchu, we recommend you to book your Machu Picchu ticket in advance, so you will enjoy your vacation in Machu Picchu without any problem.
