There are several foreigners living in Cerro Azul for the next +/- 2 years due to a construction project further down the coast. Many different nationalities. It is a lovely quiet town with a beautiful beach - but not suitable for yachting. The locals are very friendly and helpfull and the Canete valley supplies fabulous fruits and vegetables. Lima is only 1 1/2 hrs away for the rest!

If you like surfing you definitely want to swing by this place. I wouldn't exaclty say this is a must see in Lima though. But if you are really into the beach you might find yourself feeling at home here.
