Continue to San Pedro beach and mangroves before moving on to Médano Blanco for sandboarding. At Médano Blanco, an instructor tips technique so first timers can slide with confidence. Expect strong sun, soft sand and energetic buggy sections between scenic stops. Free time for lunch and a short rest comes before the return to your hotel. Bring water, sun protection and clothes you do not mind getting sandy. 📍 Location The Sechura Desert near Sechura and Piura is one of Peru's largest sand deserts, pairing vast dunes with nearby coastal mangrove scenery at San Pedro. The contrast makes the outing feel wider than a single dune face session. This northern desert experience is distinct from Huacachina near Ica and suits travellers based around Piura or the Mancora coast corridor. ✅ Prerequisites No prior buggy or sandboarding experience is required. You should be comfortable with bumpy vehicle travel, strong sun and following guide instructions on the dunes. Ask the team before travel for younger children or anyone with back concerns about rough sand driving. ⭐ Why Choose Us Combining buggy riding, mangrove scenery and sandboarding instruction keeps the day varied rather than only a short dune slide. Guides pace the desert and coastal stops clearly. Pickup toward Sechura and a structured return after lunch make logistics practical for travellers exploring northern Peru. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup toward Sechura and return logistics Dune buggy riding Visit to San Pedro beach and mangroves Sandboarding at Médano Blanco with instructor tips ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point if not using confirmed pickup Lunch and drinks Personal travel insurance Tips and personal purchases ### Kit list Closed shoes Hat, sunglasses and sunscreen Insect repellent Water and a snack Clothes you do not mind getting sandy ## FAQs ### Do I need experience?
