Huanchaco is a coastal town in northern Peru, located near the city of Trujillo. This historic beach town is renowned for its ancient fishing traditions, particularly the use of caballitos de totora - traditional reed fishing boats that have been used by local fishermen for over 3,000 years. These distinctive boats, which are still crafted and used today, represent a living connection to the area's pre-Columbian heritage, particularly the Chimú and Moche cultures.
The town serves as a gateway to important archaeological sites, including the nearby Chan Chan, the largest pre-Columbian city in South America. Today, Huanchaco combines its rich cultural heritage with a laid-back beach atmosphere, attracting both history enthusiasts and surf culture, as its waves are popular among local and international surfers.
