Beaches in Peru
PeruPeru's beaches are scattered throughout the country's 1,500-mile-long (2,415-km) coastline. Many of the best beaches are found in the dry northern coast, including Máncora, which is a hotspot for surfing. You can spend an afternoon in Huanchaco and watch fishermen paddle out on beautiful reed boats known as caballitos de tórtora. A number of other beaches can be visited while staying in Trujillo, Chiclayo, and Lima. Peru's beaches offer up places to swim, surf, fish, and kayak. Many travelers will, however, be content to simply sit with their toes in the sand and watch the waves roll in.
Peru Highlights
A curated look at the best Peru has to offer. These are the destinations that consistently stand out — places with real character, great experiences, and something worth going out of your way for.
Huanchaco Beach
A beautiful and relaxed beach town close to Trujillo and many historical sites, Huanchaco has enough charm to be a destination of its own: with vibrant boulevards, traditional reed fishing boats, and surfing culture, it’s the perfect choice for an entertaining day at the beach. Now an International Surfing Reserve, one of only five in the world, Huanchaco is a popular vacation spot where visitors and locals share the water and waves for surfing, swimming or fishing.
Explore DestinationTortugas Beach
Tortugas Beach is located along the north coast of Peru outside the town of Casma. This beach is part of a bay where fishermen dock their boats. The red-brown hills surrounding the beach make for fairly monochromatic scenery, but the beach has a certain small town charm.

The VIP Experience in Peru
I really could not be happier. The Anywhere Team made me feel like a VIP my entire time in Peru. The hotels were very nice & safe. The food was fantastic. Transportation was smooth, nice trains, safe airlines. I recommend Peru to all travelers!
We Conquered Huayna Picchu
This was a very personal experience and Anywhere.com does an amazing job of having agents who are cultured and/or very familiar with the country to which you wish to visit. This allows the agent to listen to what you want to experience and then match you up with the right outfitter, vendor, excursion group, etc...I felt like Sara Nizama truly listened to my wants/needs and made them a reality. I am so happy with my Peru experience, thanks to Sara and her team. I want to go back soon and explore more of Peru with the help of Sara and her team. Thank you!
