After travelling really quickly for a couple of weeks, visiting many historic sites and doing a tiring 4-day hike, I needed a break and Máncora was exactly the right spot for this. I stayed at the Loki hostel, which looked much more like a nice seaside hotel than a hostel. The dorms had balconies, there was a big nice pool and a direct access to the beach.

Of course, it being a Loki, there was also a party every night ;-)

My 3 days in Máncora were then spent on the beach, at the pool and in the bar - really relaxing and a lot of fun, especially because I met a lot of nice people in the hostel to spend my time with.

Máncora is also very popular for surfing, so 2 of my roommates and I decided to take our first surfing lesson there. Scary at first, it was a lot of fun once I managed to stand up and actually stay ont he board for a while I will definitely have to try this again somewhere else during my trip!
