Kayaking on Lake Titicaca



Life on Lake Titicaca is the closest Bolivia gets to a maritime culture (not surprising for a landlocked country). People fish, collect reeds for traditional totora boat making, tend fish-farms, repair boats and nets, and are rugged sailors. With no other coastline to protect, Bolivia's only naval bases are in Tiquina and Copacabana.

Party culture has also developed uniquely here. With beach-side villages only a kilometer or so apart, why not hop in the boat and do a little party-hopping?
