Ica, a little district in Peru, is a backpacker’s and thrill-seeker’s delight besides being a fun weekend getaway. With Paracas on one hand and Huacachina on the other, Ica offers a wide expanse of stunning desert landscapes, desert dunes, sea lions, sandboarding, wine-tasting and what not. Ica is home to vineyards that serve pisco and brandy made exclusively in Peru and Chile. Pisco, much like wine, is made with grapes but the processing is slightly different. Just ten minutes away from Ica is Huacachina where you can relax around the beach and slide down sand dunes as if they were snow. Dune buggying, sandboarding and watching the gorgeous desert sunset make Huacachina truly unmissable. Then there’s the Islas Ballistas (islands) where you could spot sea lions, penguins and rich biodiversity.
Check out the top-rated Airbnb vacation rentals in Ica so you can make the most of your vacation while enjoying living like the locals.
