Sunsets, sandboarding, lagoons and dune buggy rides. Huacachina is a tiny village and desert oasis west of Ica in southwestern Peru. Its center is filled with emerald green waters of the Huacachina Lagoon, thought to have therapeutic properties.

Nestled on Peru’s sun-drenched western coast, Paracas is a delightful seaside gem — soft sandy beaches, curious wildlife and endless blue skies. From here, you can sail to the playful Ballestas Islands, wander the windswept landscapes of Paracas National Reserve or set off on an unforgettable trip toward the mysterious Nazca Lines.
