Discover the best activities to do in

Huacachina. How to make the most of


your time, what is the best sport and
much more!
Huacachina is a beautiful oasis in the
middle of the desert. It is located in Ica,
capital of the department of Pisco, just 5
hours from the city of Lima.
The famous green water lagoon is
surrounded by large palm trees,
eucalyptus and huarangos, thus giving
the green touch of nature to the oasis.
This famous Oasis is known as
the Oasis of Latin America since
it is one of the few that remain in
this part of the world. Tour the
lagoon on a pedal boat or take a
walking tour along the
boardwalk. You can enjoy
delicious food or savor good wine
in the different bars and
restaurants that surround the
area.
Are you a lover of feeling unique and
extreme emotions? Then you can't stop
sandboarding on the dunes of the
Huacachina desert.
Definitely the Huacachina desert is one of
the best, if not the best place to slide on
its dunes of different sizes. If you are a
beginner you can start sliding from a lower
peak dune and then try dunes a little
steeper. You will not regret doing it!
The drivers of these sand carts are renowned
for their dexterity when driving through the
dunes. That is why you should not miss
touring the desert in one of these buggies.
Going through the desert at full speed in one
of these sand cars will not only make you feel
an incredible rush of adrenaline but it will
also allow you to see the landscape from
another perspective. This is the ideal time to
bring out your inner adventurer.
Buggies are offered by several tourist
companies in the area, as it is one of the most
popular activities for visitors. Don't miss the
opportunity to take a short trip from Lima
and enjoy this fun adventure.
If you love to go hiking, then you should
venture to trek through the dunes. Do
not think that it is not worth it since the
views you will have of the desert will be
impressive.
Remember that you can do it on your
own, but always following the
recommended security measures. Take
enough water with you, try to wear
comfortable clothes and shoes, do not
forget to apply sunscreen and above all
do not go too far.
