"The largest rubbish dump in Peru" led us as we traveled on the Andean Explorer to get out the camera's and await this place. Perhaps I am not being entirely fair with my rating but we were all stunned by what we saw...from the train it looked like a combination of 'Blade Runner' & 'Apocolypse now'.
From other reviews it seems to have a more positive aspect but for a truly interesting view go through by train.

Nice small island off the peninsula. The setting was beautiful. The accommodations were basic but that was what I was expecting.

This area sums to town up, it's completely disorganised. Probably because the town/city has grown so fast everything seems to be all over the place with no structure. So many shops seem closed as there is so much competition from newcomers in different parts of town, not really worth a stopover.
