Hi guys,
So after our stopover in Santiago, we took a flight to Lima and then a taxi to the small town of Punta Hermosa, 45 minutes South of Lima. We spent 4 days there, at Bravo Surfcamp. We surfed Cabarellos, Senoritas and Punta Rocas. These are all point breaks, and Cabarellos and Senoritas are in the same bay, a right at one end and a left at the other = crazy set up!
We tried our first Peruvian ceviche (raw fish cooked in lime juice): amazing! You can eat for pretty cheap in Peru, the set menu starts at 6 soles ($2) for a three courses meal.
On our last day, we spent the morning at the ruins of Pachacamac, one of the most ancient religious site of the South, where the Ychmu, Lima and Inca people lived. The tour of the ruins finishes with a panoramic view over the ocean and the Lurin valley, the contrast here, with the desert scenery of the Andes, the deep blue of the ocean and the bright green of the valley is simply breath-taking…
It is from Punta Hermosa that we prepared our departure to the North of Peru, but first we spent two days in Lima, the capital of Peru.
Next update with photos from Lima and where we are currently getting awesome waves; Lobitos!!
Cheers,
Marie
