Los Órganos
A slower rhythm on Peru’s northern coast.
Set along the Pacific in Peru’s Piura region, approximately 13 kilometres south of Máncora, Los Órganos invites you to discover coastal life at an unhurried pace. Sandy beaches, a working fishing harbour and local seafood give the town its character, while Punta Veleros offers a setting for beach walks, ocean views and time to unwind.
Spend your days exploring the coastline, discovering local surf spots or visiting neighbouring beaches such as Vichayito and El Ñuro. Seasonal whale-watching excursions offer another way to experience the region’s marine life, with outings shaped by the season and ocean conditions.
Los Órganos is approximately 66 kilometres by road from Talara Airport and 173 kilometres from Piura Airport, making both practical arrival points for a stay on the northern coast. From La Playa, settle into your own rhythm between the beach, the village and the wider coastline.

Beach time and surf

A villa for your group
