Our first port in Peru. The port is 40 km from the town, not much here except for a ship loading gravel, and containers. One of the exports is road salt!

Our tour today took us on open boats to see the small Ballestas Islands with sea lions, birds, and a few penguins. Also crabs and Starfish on the rocks.

We also saw El Candelabro - from about 200 BC they think. Like a giant cactus
