About
Raske fakta: A cliffside promenade hums with paragliders, joggers, and vendors whose citrusy ceviche aromas mingle with salty sea spray. Miles of winding paths thread through sculptural parks and manicured lawns, creating dramatic sunset viewpoints and lively people-watching every evening.
Høydepunkter: At dawn paragliders launch off the sea cliffs in clusters of bright canopies, drifting above surfers and fishermen while the salt spray and engine hum fill the air. Couples have a quirky habit of lining up on the colorful mosaic bench to reenact a kiss beside Victor Delfín’s bronze sculpture, and vendors pass around steaming black coffee and buttery alfajores so everyone can freeze the shot.
Insider tips
- Wear layers and a windproof jacket, coastal winds and cool evenings can be strong.
- Head east from Parque del Amor for quieter stretches and better cliff views to avoid the busiest spots.
- Best photo spots are the Parque del Amor mosaics, cliff-edge viewpoints near Punta Roquitas, and the Miraflores Lighthouse at sunset.
- Skip the crowded souvenir kiosks near Larcomar and focus on the 1.5 km stretch between Larcomar and Parque del Amor if short on time.
