Galapagos of Peru
Approximately four hours south of Lima, Peru, just a few miles offshore, the cold waters of the Humboldt Current make a deep dive, bringing nutrient-rich waters to the surface. This process, known as upwelling, creates an ideal environment for marine life. The result is a literal fish soup that attracts a vast array of wildlife, both in the water and above it, earning these islands the nickname "The Galapagos of Peru".
