Huanchaco is a little surf town in the Northwest of Peru. It's known for its laidback vibes, beginner friendly surf, and traditional caballitos de totora boats. And don't forget the fresh ceviche!

It was once the main port for the ancient city of Chan Chan and has a rich history dating back to pre-Columbian times.
