Beach near Cajamarca, Peru

Cajamarca Travel Guide

Peru

Cajamarca is a city of around 135,000 people in northern Peru, set in the Andes. It is an inland destination rather than a coastal resort, so trips here are focused on the city and surrounding mountain landscapes.

Travellers arriving by air use Cajamarca Airport (CJA). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so the nearby coastline is not part of a visit to Cajamarca.
