Costa Verde (Peruvian region)

Costa Verde (Green Coast) is a geographical area made up of a coastal strip located in the bay of Lima in the cities of Lima and Callao. It covers from the outcrop of the La Punta peninsula in the district of La Punta, in Callao, to the La Chira hill in the district of Chorrillos, Lima.

The area is characterised by its cliffs, which in the upper part are located in the city of Lima, while in the lower part are the beaches facing the shores of the Peruvian sea. Due to its location, Lima stands out for being the only capital in South America that faces the Pacific Ocean.

Near the slopes of the cliff, in the lower part, is the semi-express vehicular route that allows access to several riverside districts. It also has cycle paths and pedestrian paths.
