One such little town is Huanchaco, which is only 20 minutes away from Trujillo. Apart from just relaxing at the beach, travelers can learn Spanish from one of the many local teachers, or rent a surfboard and try their luck in the sea. It’s also possible to visit the nearby archaeological sites of Chan Chan and Huaca de la Luna y Sol.
