After leaving Nazca, we will travel south along the coast to Camaná, which is a transit point to Arequipa.
Almost everything between Nazca and here was desert or wasteland.
It is interesting that the desert continues along the coast, which is not something you see in Japan.
A road has been built on top of the rocky cliffs, and it feels like the desert is encroaching on the cliffs. If you don't maintain it constantly, the road seems like it will be buried in sand.
Just like when I traveled south from Lima, the coast is surprisingly cold. Even though it should be around 20 degrees, the wind is cold. Perhaps a cold ocean current is coming from the south?
Nazca was warmer than I expected, considering it is inland and at an altitude of 700 meters. Nazca had been sunny. The coast has a lot of clouds.
I wore down insulated pants. It's that cold. If it's already this cold here, I might need to consider equipment for Patagonia/Ushuaia. The temperatures there are in the single digits even in summer.
Here is the accommodation information:
Hostel Leo's
Single room: 35 sols (approximately 1,270 yen), breakfast not included.
It's not bad.
