Peru: Kayaking Lake Titicaca


Room with a View

This pocket beach was the kind of campsite kayakers dream about. With the kayak beached a few meters from the shore, we easily unloaded our gear and had our portable home built within an hour. We were close to water, protected from winds, and an animal track lead up to a lookout with views to the snow-capped Andes.

In the afternoon we lazed in the sun and then watched the sunset from a rocky outcrop. The next morning the sun's rays reached the beach shortly after sunrise.
