Copacabana is one of Bolivia’s most bustling tourism towns, set along the shore of gorgeous Lake Titicaca, with sun and sand and rolling hills. There is plenty to see and do here, including boats, bikes, museums, ruins, walking, parasailing, and more. During the day plan to be outside! Copacabana’s sunny days make walking around the town and along the shore a must, and there are even religious pilgrimages to follow for fantastic views. The museums shed light on the interesting indigenous culture and are worth a visit too.

Museo del Poncho
Although it's located on an unassuming side street, the Museo del Poncho calls out with its multicolored MAS flags, both on the building front and in the main square (a couple blocks up, it has directional arrows to follow). This museum is a new addition to Copacabana, providing an extensive...

Copacabana Cathedral
One of the truly unique churches in Bolivia, the sprawling Copacabana Cathedral is definitely worth a visit. With large round domes, commanding pillars, and mudéjar (Moorish) style design, it is unlikely you will find anything like this in the rest of Bolivia. From the outside the cathedral is a...

Mercado Modelo
Just next to the 2 de Febrero Plaza, the Mercado Modelo is a great place to stock up on fruits, veggies and pig parts (think heads and hooves), if you plan on cooking for yourself. Vegetarians beware, the entrance also serves as the meat stalls. Venture in a bit further, however, and you’ll find...

Cerro Calavario
Hostal Wilka Wata is a popular choice for one very important reason: it is the first place offering accommodation that travelers come across on the long uphill walk from the dock. The rooms, which all face the lake, are undoubtedly simple, but the owners have made the effort to add a bit of warmth...

Copacabana Beach
It's not as captivating as the beach of the same name in Brazil, but the Copacabana Beach is about as close as you will get to surf, sand and sun in landlocked Bolivia. Though the high altitude and grainy sand make for unappealing sunbathing, it’s a nice place to spend an afternoon. There are...
