Description:
- Isla El Fronton is a colossal rock structure which, for years, served as a penal colony and a feared political prison. At the moment, it is abandoned, but tourists who wish to know something about this coastal area occasionally visit, and the island became legendary after a prison riot in 1986. As on the other Callao islands, seal colonies provide a beautiful view. It is accessible by boat and by ferry, which departs from Puerto del Callao. The journey takes 30 minutes on average.
