Playa de Puerto Bonito

Playa de Puerto Bonito is an undeveloped sandy beach on the Pacific coast near San Antonio in the Lima region. It is listed for naturist use and is normally quiet, with visits limited to daylight hours. There is no indication of formal admission, opening hours, lifeguards, toilets, showers, shade structures, or food and drink vendors. Plan a short, self-sufficient stay of a few hours and carry drinking water, sun protection, food, and a bag for all waste. Access is by private vehicle or taxi from San Antonio, followed by an unpaved track and a walk over sand and uneven ground to the shore. Morning to early afternoon is favored for milder wind and for following the access track in full daylight. Parking is informal beside the track, without a formal lot, so secure valuables and keep the vehicle locked. Public transport does not reach the beach directly. The shore has sand with little natural shade and high sun exposure, so a light shelter, hat, and sunscreen help during a stay of several hours. The Pacific water is cool with surf and possible currents, so swimming calls for caution and many visitors may prefer to stay near the shore. Check sea conditions on arrival and avoid entering the water alone when surf looks rough. Austral summer, around December to March, generally offers warmer and sunnier weather, while winter can bring cloud, cool wind, and rougher seas. Because the site is remote with few visitors, avoid isolated late visits, tell someone your plans, and leave with enough daylight to return along the track. Carry out everything brought in, as no bins or cleaning services are indicated.
