RIDE THE DUNES IN A DESERT OASIS ULTIMATE HUACACHINA SANDBOARDING ADVENTURE
Ica, Perú
EXPERIENCE SANDBOARDING IN HUACACHINA
3 hours | Languages: Spanish and English
Sandboarding is all the rage, and there’s no better place to experience it than in Huacachina. Known for its massive dunes and picturesque lagoon, Huacachina is a must-visit for adventure seekers. Our tour is designed to cater to everyone, from solo travelers to couples and groups of friends, looking for an unforgettable experience.
The adventure begins in the mid-afternoon when you’ll meet your experienced instructor, who has a background in both snowboarding and sandboarding, ensuring you get top-notch guidance. If you’re new to sandboarding, don’t worry! Your instructor will start with the basics, helping you build confidence on smaller dunes. You’ll learn how to brake, control your speed, find your stance (goofy or regular), and how to ride the dunes diagonally. After mastering the basics, you’ll get to tackle some of the larger, more challenging dunes. Feel the rush as you surf down the massive sand slopes, with the wind in your hair and the stunning desert landscape all around you.
One of the best parts of this adventure is the dune buggy support. No need to hike back up the dunes; the buggy will be there to whisk you back to the top, so you can focus on the fun of gliding down the slopes. This not only saves your energy but also maximizes your time on the sand. Plus, the dunny buggy ride is an exhilarating adventure of its own!
As the day winds down, we’ll find the perfect spot to enjoy the sunset, far from the typical tourist crowds. Your instructor will be on hand to capture the best photos of your adventure, ensuring you have plenty of Instagram-worthy shots to share. The desert sunset, with its vibrant hues, provides a magical backdrop to end your day on a high note.
