If you are a nature lover, photo explorer and an active person this is a must be placed on your bucket list. Get ready to shoot birds, insects, flowers, and landscapes!
Fog oases are common along the Peruvian coast and Atacama, a unique planet ecosystem created by the action of the wind, humidity and temperature of the sea in winter, from mid-July to mid-October in a regular year.
Lima City is losing every year a lot of these lands because of the absence of legal actions. This place is one of the nearest few survivors and has easy access.
