This place is full of life forms, from insects to big mammals.
It is a good spot for birdwatching and for discovering marine birds
like Humboldt penguins, Guanay Cormorants, Peruvian Boobies and the
endemic seaside cincloides, Moustached Turcas, White-Throated
Tapaculos and the magnificent Giant Hummingbird, which nests in this
area.
There is an island located a few meters from the coast, which gives
you a unique opportunity of observing these magnificent marine
mammals. It is also possible to observe other marine mammals like
the "chungungos" or sea otters, which are very common in this
place..
