Paracas Bay
Paracas Bay is a bay in the Department of Ica, Peru. With its southern end lying within the Paracas National Reservation, the bay is well known for its abundant wildlife.

The bay appears as the gateway to Paracas National Reserve, its warmer shallow waters foster wildlife and many nautical sports, and its calm shoreline protects the municipality of Paracas and the various cottages and hotels that have sprung up in the last few years. As of recent years, the bay has hosted many sailors on catamaran A catamaran () (informally, a "cat") is a watercraft with two parallel hull (watercraft), hulls of equal size.
