Something not right?
Description
- free
- we originally parked at the big parking lot, but we were invited to camp in front of the visitor center (safer, less windy)
- there was a water tap, but no other facilities (toilet was closed for the night, probably could be arranged in the gift shop/cafe, if you arrive earlier)

Latest Check-Ins
Do not come after 16pm orher wise They Will not let you in . Camping is officially not allowed the k the réserve so if you want to enter late in the afternoon, wait until They go back home. There is no gate closed .
Report Check-InA very nice, informative (in english & spanish) museum now about the Paracas culture. Recommended. 7,50 Sol entrance. The toilet next to museum entrance is for free. The one behind the building next to a cafetaria is 1 sol.
For the reserva 11 sol pp entrance. They didn't ask how lang we would stay.
Like other entry already said, the construction is finished in February 2017, everything is new, signs for directions and informations(English and Spanish), the road is gravel/salt mix but drivable with every car(dry season), we saw 3-4 option for bathrooms, sometimes closed, sometimes open for 1-2 sol, clean and friendly staff, close to Playa Rojo are 3-4 restaurants with, hopefully with fresh sea food.
Definitely worth to visit, nice area and nature beach/cliff sites, there is no reason to sleep at the visitor center if you can stay at the ocean, be friendly to the park rangers and they tell you where to stay! Still 10 sol p.P. per day including one stay overnight, 3 days might be 20 p.P.!
Enjoy
We intend to stay here overnight, but we were only allowed to stay at a very windy place in front of the building.
Report Check-InCurrently most roads are blocked and under construction. In our opinion not worth the visit until december.
Report Check-InWe didn't stay overnight here, but we did stop to check out the visitors center. While we were inside someone broke into our van. Luckily nothing was taken, but the lock was broken on one of our doors. We think that it was probably a guy that we saw with a red van. Use caution here.
