Copacabana Travel Guide: 146 reviews and 293 photos

Copacabana is a small little town on the shores of Lake Titicaca. It is a great location if you wish to explore the Island of the sun, (according to the Incas this is the birthplace of the sun) a 2 hour boat ride away. Or you can just relax and admire the lake from shore. I have heard that this city is a much beter place to experience Lake Titicaca then its counterpart Puno in Peru.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Small little town on the shores of the worlds highest lake, very cheap
