Discover Morón Oasis, a natural desert escape about one hour from Paracas, where towering dunes meet a peaceful lagoon surrounded by native vegetation. The journey takes you through the green Pisco Valley, creating a striking contrast between fertile farmland and the desert landscape. At Morón, you can join an optional 40–50 minutes guided dune walk, including time to pause, enjoy panoramic views and take photos from the dune ridges. Back at the oasis, relax by the lagoon, swim if you wish, or try optional sandboarding. Additional activities such as boat rides and paddleboarding may also be available on site and can be arranged directly with local providers at an extra cost. With few crowds and no large tourist infrastructure, Morón offers a peaceful, flexible way to experience one of the region’s most remarkable desert landscapes.
Scenic Route to Morón Lagoon: Your journey begins with a pictures drive through the Pisco Valley, passing the vibrant San Clemente market and the charming district of Bernales. Along the way, enjoy views of local farmlands where crops like corn, cotton, grapes, and paprika flourish. The drive to the lagoon takes approximately 50 minutes.
Dune Trekking with Breathtaking Views: Upon arrival, a gentle hike through the surrounding dunes awaits. As you walk, take in panoramic views of the Pisco Valley, the distant Andes mountains, and the serene Morón Lagoon itself. Along the way, keep an eye out for native wildlife such as wild ducks, birds, and lizards
Oasis Relaxation: End your adventure with a peaceful break by the lagoon. Swim in its refreshing waters, take a relaxing boat ride, or try kayaking for an extra thrill (available at an additional cost). Morón is not just a destination, it’s a desert escape like no other.

Great choice. They adapted to our times and needs. In our case we have visited the ruins of Tambo Colorado in conjunction with the Oasis of Moron. We both got to visit them almost without people! Very friendly and informed guide.
Muchas gracias por su reseña amigos. Nos alegra mucho que les gusto Tambo Colorado y también el Oasis. Saludos desde Paracas :)
Great experience with Odon. We had booked the Baleta Islands in the morning then they took us to the Moron Oasis. Walk in the dunes for 3 hours and sandboard activity. Beautiful landscapes we were alone in the world. Young and old loved it. I think it bothers Huacachina who is very touristy. Odon gives us explanations throughout the tour in Spanish and a bit in English. We recommend it.
Muchas gracias por el tiempo de hacer esta reseña recordados amigos. Nos alegra mucho que esta experiencia les encantó! Saludos desde Paracas :)
The sunset tour to the Moron Lagoon was our favorite experience in the Paracas area. Odon takes us on a tour without any other tourists, explains the biodiversity of the place, all in a relaxed and really fun Mood! We recommend with pleasure, go for it
Muchas gracias por compartir esta reseña amigos. Nos alegra mucho que les gustó la experiencia. Saludos desde Paracas :)
Odon picked us up at the bus terminal and then took care of everything, the oasis is beautiful and he shared a lot of information with us! Great bonus photographer, just perfect!
Muchas gracias por sus reseña amigos. Nos encanta que todo fue estupendo y que Odon fue de gran ayuda en todo momento. Saludos desde Paracas :)
We had a wonderful time in the Oasis de Moron with our guide Odon. He took us around the dunes to discover hidden spots. We were able to sand board and enjoy every part of the sunset. It was a pleasure sharing that time with Odon that went above and beyond to let us enjoy every part of this wonderful place.
Thank you for the time for write about this experience! we are so happy you enjoyed the oasis :)
We spent four hours with Odon, our tour guide to the Moron Oasis. It is the only guide that offers the tour of the Oasis for breathtaking views from the sand dunes. I recommend this agency!
Thanks a lot for the time to share your experience in Moron Oasis guys. We are happy you spent a good time :)
Super nice view. Nobody was there but us, only to the end a few locals. Super quiet and enchanting spot of nature. Worth it in any case
Thank you so much for the review my friends! we are so happy you enjoyed a lot the experience! :)
Very nice experience I recommend. We were there in the morning and it was just us. Walking in the dunes, sandbording and swimming in the lagoon was top
Muchas gracias por tu reseña Doriane! nos alegra que todo fue super para ustedes! :)
Moisés and Odón are great hosts! They welcomed us with great kindness and were always willing to help. You can drink drinks on site, have meals and have breakfast (the coffee is very tasty!). A place to enjoy moments of rest. As it is not close to the center of Paracas, the ideal is to come in time for the tours, which can also be arranged directly with them. Odón was great as a guide at Laguna de Morón, where we went sandboarding and then swam. Furthermore, he took us to a great restaurant in the region, to eat seafood and fresh ceviche. We loved our stay here! The matrimonial room is very comfortable and the bathroom facilities are very good. It exceeded our expectations! We will definitely be back!
Muchas gracias por compartir con nosotros tu experiencia en Paracas Barbara. Nos alegra mucho que todo fue de su agrado y que disfrutaron cada día. Son bienvenidos siempre! :)
