Manglares de Tumbes National Sanctuary

National Park

The Manglares de Tumbes National Sanctuary, one half hour north of Tumbes, gives travellers access to 200 species of birds, rare mammals (such as the crab-eating raccoon and the neo-tropical otter), and over 40 varieties of plants. As of yet, this constitutes one of the less-discovered treasures of northern Peru, popular with tourists, but not so that it is overcrowded or spoiled.

 

The most verdant time to go is from April to November; from December to March much of the Manglares wetlands dries up, and becomes a rich opportunity for harvesting shellfish.  Getting there by either bus or taxi is very inexpensive.
