  Description

  In the remote beach of Arequipa region, where many coves or small bays are, is set this eco-lodge and scallops marine farm, in front of one of the most beautiful beaches of Peru, on an alien landscape of desertic coastline. A few years ago was only reachable navigating 20km, now a new highway is near and we have dirt road access. It is home to many marine life, where the locals are the Humboldt penguins, sea otters, and many sea lions and sea birds. We are a family-run project that aims to protect this area of urban development and overexploitation of marine resources, being guardians of this place for the past 20 years.
  You must speak Spanish at least at the intermediate level, be over 23 years old, and have time for 4 weeks with us as volunteers.

  Autres infos...

  There are different remote and desolate coves with beaches within walking distance, transport is not easy to take, so you might end up exploring a lot walking (bring sneakers), this area is remote and barely deeply explored. Inside the property there is a 400 hundred year old anchor of whom nobody knows anything at all, it might be pin marking something.
  5km navigating south, is the location of a national park, where sea lions, penguins, and thousand of sea birds live. A tour of this place will be provided as a treat when we get free spaces on the boat if you stay 4 weeks or more with us.
