Why Go?
The apocalyptic dune desertscape that makes up Peru's unruly north coast is a startling
clash of sun and sand that refuses to relinquish the horizon for some 1300km from Lima to
the Ecuadorian border. Cerulean waters settling in on Peru's best beaches bounce off the
seemingly barren desert, but scattered about this heaving coastline are enough antediluvian
ruins to send archaeologists into a head-spinning frenzy of Raiders of the Lost Ark propor-
tions.
