BEACHES IN LA LIBERTAD

Chicama

This beach is home to the world's longest wave, and is not surprisingly a surfing hotspot. The saying goes that to surf Chicama, in La Libertad, one needs a spare set of legs. The waves are spurred with the southern and western currents. This fishing cove, also known as Malabrigo, is reached via a detour at the town of Paiján, at Kilometer 614 of the North Pan-American Highway. Apt for all kind of vehicles.

Huanchaco

Huanchaco lies 11 km northwest of Trujillo, and is popular amongst backpackers and nightowls. The caballitos de totora line the shore at sunset in this traditional fishing cove. Half an hour south of  Trujillo lies Puerto Mori, a quiet, leafy town renowned for delicious local dishes such as Cangrejo Reventado (boiled crab) and Sudado de Chita (steamed fish). The town overlooks the beach of Cerro Negro.
