Huacachina, Ica Region, Peru

That’s not mirage, it’s Huacachina–an unexpected desert oasis that’s found in the Ica Region of southern Peru. The town has about 100 permanent residents, but thousands visit each year to bathe in the waters, which are said to have healing properties. In recent years, water levels have diminished, a concern for residents and presumably also for the legendary mermaid that’s said to inhabit the lagoon.
