Chiclayo Travel Guide
Peru
Chiclayo is a city of about 645,000 people on Peru’s northern coast and an important urban centre in the country’s north. Its coastal setting gives it a generally warm, dry climate, with the Pacific nearby.
Most visitors arriving by air use J.A. Quinones Gonzalez Airport, which serves Chiclayo directly. There are no named notable beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so Chiclayo is better treated as a base for exploring northern Peru than as a beach destination in its immediate vicinity.
