Chiclayo Beaches
Caballito de totora

Like Huanchaco, the fishermen of Chiclayo still make and fish from ancient reed craft called caballito de totora. The best two beaches near Chiclayo are Playa Pimentel and Playa Santa Rosa.
These are not great swimming or surfing beaches, but they’re nice to walk on and early in the morning you can see fishermen setting out or coming back on their caballito de totora. Both spots also have many ceviche restaurants lining the beach.
