Travel to Peru
Every place on world is attractive and distinctive, but Peru is one of those countries that manage to stand above the crowd. This place has so many natural and cultural treasures that have mesmerized people for hundreds of years and still fascinates them today. If you are a little bit of everything—a nature enthusiast, a food buff, an adventure seeker and also cherish an interest in history—then traveling to Peru is for you. Natural lakes, mountains, rainforest and arid stretches…you name it and Peru has it. From its ruins from the Inca civilization and Pre-Inca times to the mysterious patterns spread across large stretches of land and innumerable museums and galleries, Peru’s attractions speak volumes about the past.
Diving in Peru
Divers will locate a variety of dive sites to intrigue their interest. Nearby Pucusana offers an about 100-foot wall dive and a 60-foot wreck dive is found a short distance northwest of Lima near the Chincha Islands. Palomino Island deserves special interest due to the unique prospect it offers divers. Situated approximately one half hour from Lima, Palomino Island attracts visitors who desire to interact with its friendly sea lion colony. The nutrient and oxygen-rich Peruvian sea, found off the coast of Lima, produce the exciting biodiversity of the area. You will not find coral reefs, but you will have the chance to spot some of the more than 1,000 species of fish, 1,400 species of mollusks and 300 species of shellfish registered in Peru.
