Surfers from around the world come to Huanchaco for its frequent breaks, excellent surf classes, and thousands of years of surf history. Groups of surfers and instructors can be found along several of Huanchaco's beaches all day, every day.
Surfers with modern surfboards waiting for some waves as a fisherman on a caballito, Huanchaco's first surf craft, takes a tourist for a short ride. Traditional fishing is extremely difficult today due to environmental changes and commercial fishing, so some fishermen supplement their income by taking tourists out on their caballitos.
Volunteers at Otra Cosa Network meet at the organization's office every Monday morning. Team members who lead various projects take turns going around the room, discussing last week's accomplishments, the current week's plans, and any other pressing challenges that their program is facing.
