Piura: Full day excursion to Paita and Colán

Itinerary
We will pick you up at your hotel in Piura at 9:00 a.m. and set off for the coastal town of Paita.

Upon arrival, we will go to the port, where we will board a traditional boat for 20 minutes to go in search of sea lions. In addition, birds such as the black pilpilén, the brown pelican and the blue-footed booby also live here.

The best part? Throughout the tour we will give you a taste of Peruvian chifles, fried plantain delicacies. Afterwards, we will head to Yacila beach, a half-kilometer stretch of fine sand where you will have the opportunity to take a well-deserved dip.

We will then travel to Colán to visit the church of San Lucas, a 16th century basilica built on the ruins of a pre-Hispanic temple of capullanas. Did you know that it was the first chapel in the South Pacific?

At the end of the visit, you will have an hour of free time for lunch and then you can relax at the Colán beach resort, a beautiful beach with emerald-colored waters surrounded by palm trees. Be careful! It is not difficult to see manta rays in this beautiful enclave.

Finally, we will be on our way back to Piura, where we will arrive at your hotel at 5:20 pm.
