Islay
8.5
Mid score (6-8)
Islay includes Mollendo, a port town with more economic activity than other coastal areas. It's working-class but functional—honest fish restaurants, some nightlife, and the attitude is more transactional than family-focused. You can have a solid short-term run here. The locals are used to travelers and transient workers, which cuts both ways.
Lower score (below 6)
Mollendo itself is fine for a visit, but the province is mostly poor fishing villages and desert. The women here are either older or looking to escape—there's no thriving young social scene beyond short-term transient culture.
