Huanchaco is a good place for a short walk, and practice the surf. The wave is good for beginners and the water is not that deep.So it's alright for people to practice.
5. Museo de Sitio de Chan Chan

Yet another great museum in Trujillo. For me they have the perfect balance of quality exhibits, accompanied by succint information in English. The entry fee is part of the 10 soles ticket for 4 sites in Trujillo (Chan Chan, Arco Iris, Esmerelda). Really great museum where you can photograph everything. Allow 30 to 45 minutes... or an hour if this is your first museum in Trujillo.
