Capachica & Llachón

For boats to Amantaní

Capachica is a tiny town that serves as the transportation hub for Llachón and Playa Chifrón, where you can find boats to Amantaní and Taquile islands.

Capachica doesn’t have any good lodging, though nearby Llachón has several new places that function like a homestay on the islands but have more developed rooms like a hotel. I stayed with Oliver, whose brother also has a similar homestay/hotel next door.

Capachica is famous for the hats that local women wear. While many places in Peru have their own special hat styles, Capachica is by far my favorite. Capachica hats
