Marcona: The Beaches


When prepping for the trip to Marcona, I found it difficult to find much information about the place, which is surprising when you realize that it is full of beautiful beaches and coastlines.

Playa hermosa (Beautiful beach) - a more sheltered beach, beautiful setting, but colder than some of the others

Playa Yanyarinas




 But my favorite was the playa de los leones. The rocks created several tidal pools where we could observe all kinds of sea creatures!



Starfish


Fish, crabs, shrimp

Sea suns

Sea urchins



This beach also has these two famous rock structures-the elephant on the left and the turtle on the right
