Peru- Küste
Lobitos: Desert until the sea, fine sand on the beach, cold water, high waves - a paradise for surfers with view on oil rigs.
Here you can meet young people from all over the world who came for the waves and also for parties. Remember this place, if you want to surf cheap, starting from the outfit to hire until the accommodation. Here we found the best waves we have seen on the whole coast from Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. If you want to try without wet suit you must like icy water, the water really is cold.
We came from Piura by plane and then by bus to Talara and further to Lobitos, but there is also a small airport in Talara.
The food is better to buy in Talara, the next city about 40 minutes from Lobitos. There you have a big variety at the market and small restaurants around.
The Peruan coast has a lot of variety of sea food and of intensive flavor. "Ceviche" for example, is made of raw seafood with lemon and mixed with salad. They prepare the food in front of your eyes in small shops or in restaurants.
From Talara to Lobitos you have a bus shuttle service, the buses wait until they are full. It is only a 40 minutes ride.
Desert, oil rigs, pipelines until and in Lobitos.
There are a lot of "pousadas", small family hotels with good prices. At the beach you find cafes and restaurants. We were asking ourselves why so many restaurants - until the weekend. Then everything is crowded. People come from elsewhere, if possible by their own car until the sea and there is loud music everywhere. Many of the shops are opened only on weekends.
These tourists leave their rubbish on the beach, but it is cleaned up. On monday, when the tourists and the rubbish is gone, it is calm again and Lobitos turns to a paradise for oil and surfers again.
Become and gone in Lobitos
