La Perla

La Perla is a coastal district in Callao Constitutional Province that stretches along the Pacific Ocean. The area is bordered by San Miguel, Bellavista, and downtown Callao and serves as an important part of the port zone.

The district was founded in 1964 as an administrative unit within Callao Province. This establishment marked the formal separation and recognition as an independent territorial entity with its own governance.

Residents shape the neighborhood through their deep connection to the sea and port culture that defines daily life. You see this relationship to the water reflected throughout the streets and public spaces.

The area is easy to explore on foot and offers direct access to beaches and the waterfront. Visitors should prepare for changing weather conditions and wear comfortable walking shoes.

The district sits on a slight elevation and connects directly to Peru's main port. This position makes it a place where commerce and local life exist side by side.
