Our tour offers a rare and intimate wildlife encounter that stands out from the crowd. What sets our activity apart is the opportunity to not only observe sea lions from a distance, but to join these playful and curious creatures in their natural aquatic environment. Our expert guides ensure a safe and respectful experience for both participants and sea lions, with an emphasis on environmentally friendly practices. This unique interaction, with the stunning Palomino Islands seascape as a backdrop, is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that goes beyond mere sightseeing to create a genuine connection with nature.
ITINERARY
Meeting point
Departure for adventure: At first, we observe the anchorage of yachts, warships, and merchant ships in the Bay of Callao. Along the way, we pass the shallows of El Camotal, open sea. We pass the island of San Lorenzo, with a rich history dating back to pre-Columbian times. We see fishing boats, several colonies of guano birds, and Humboldt penguins.
Swimming with sea lions: We reached the furthest point, Palomino Island, home to a large colony of sea lions, where we could swim freely among them in wetsuits, thanks to the absence of predators. It was an unforgettable and emotional experience.
Return to boarding: We begin the return journey through stunning cliffs and islets. A snack is served before arriving at the pier.
