Paracas Beach What beaches are worth visiting in Paracas?

There are so many beautiful things in the world, and there are so many scenery you may want to see. In this world, such as the connection between the desert and the sea, you may not believe it, but it is true. If you want to see such a scenic spot, you can take a look at Paracas Beach.

Paracas

It's time to wear down jackets in the northern hemisphere, and Peru in the southern hemisphere has just ushered in summer. Unlike the rainy season in the Andes and the hot and humid weather in the Amazon all year round, Paracas on the Pacific coast has a wonder.

Because of the flat coastline and the cold current in the Pacific Ocean, the golden desert can't keep moist air. Paracas is a coastal area, but geographically it belongs to a dry desert climate, so you can see the natural phenomenon that the yellow sand is connected with the blue sea here.

If you are praying that the weather will be fine when you go to Machu Picchu, then you don't have to worry about the bad weather when you come to Paracas. The sun shines all year round, and the Paracas candlestick with a history of more than 2,000 years is so well preserved. Naturally, there is no need to worry about rain.

Apart from its wonderful beauty, Paracas is not a deserted Gobi. As early as the pre-Columbian period, Paracas Desert had been inhabited by residents, and hundreds of mummies were unearthed one after another, famous for painted pottery and gorgeous fabrics. This picturesque town has less than 5000 residents.

Paracas is only 200 kilometers away from the capital Lima, and has become an ideal destination for outdoor explorers and beach lovers. If you also like to explore beautiful small attractions during your trip, then take a look at the 7 most beautiful beaches in Paracas arranged by the Peruvian monarch.

Lamina Beach, located in Paracas Reserve, is one of the favorite beaches of local people. If you don't see a car in the parking lot, you may find it difficult to find the beach. It is wrapped in a bay, and only when you walk down the steps will you find a suddenly enlightened world.

After years of weathering, the rocks around Blade Beach have charming lines and become the iconic background board for tourists to take pictures here. Food, drinks and toilets are all available. However, it should be noted that due to the terrain, sometimes the sea breeze of the blades is relatively large.

Praia El Raspen

If you want to avoid the crowds and give yourself a quiet sea view, you can go north from the thin layer and come to another unknown beach-El Raspen. This beach is small, but it is quiet all year round. The waves of the sea are subtle, and the clear water makes you feel like you are in a natural swimming pool.

Because not many people know, the supporting facilities of PlayaElRaspon are not as perfect as LaMina next door, and tourists need themselves.

Prepare food and change clothes. However, a little inconvenience will not affect your comfort, and it will be easier to take pictures.

Yumak Beach

At the other end of the bay, Yumak Beach is in a prime position to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Paracas. The endless desert in the distance has different colors. The marine life brought by the nearby tides is like a treasure on the beach, and seabirds who come to prey on oysters play a real animal world.

Compared with other beaches, Yumak Beach has no steep cliffs, mild climate and easy access, and there are great cafes nearby serving drinks, snacks or lunch. It should be noted that the waves near Yumak will be a little rough.

Playa mendieta

In the south of the central area of Paracas, Praia mendieta is another little-known photography shrine with huge rocks and mysterious structures. This is a little beauty that only the most playful tourists will punch in.

Some people say that if there is a mermaid in the world, she might rest on this rock. Of course, you may not see a mermaid in Praia mendieta, but like a mermaid, you can enjoy the strange sunrise in the ocean desert on the rocks in the morning and evening.

Red beach

The beach is called "Red Beach", which is actually called PlayaRoja. Because it is as rich as oil painting, it has become the most famous photo punching place in Paracas. Hundreds of tourists come here every day to watch the magical red beach.

The sea moistens the red sand again and again, and the shape of the waves is briefly recorded, waiting for the painter nature to put pen to paper next time. What is even more rare about this beach is that there are no shops or restaurants that interfere with your shooting, but you need to prepare all the items accordingly.

Playa Su Pei

PlayaSupay is one of the beaches closest to Paracas Reserve and the first stop of many tourist routes in Paracas. The characteristic here is that the steep coastline separates the endless desert from the blue sea, and this classic photo of sea and sky is taken here.

PlayaSupay also has excellent paragliding conditions, a wide view and just the right wind speed, which gives you the opportunity to overlook the charming scenery of the entire Paracas coastline from the air. Remember to check the wind conditions of the day. The best departure time is 1 1 am.
