Early start after breakfast, to begin with a visit to Witch Hill (Cerro Brujo), a beautiful white sand beach, where species like brown pelicans, blue-footed boobies and sea lions are found. Next we head to kicker rock, located of the coast of San Cristobal, to see the remains of a lava cone eroded by the sea, the perfect resting place for tropic birds, frigates and boobies. After lunch, head to Lobos Island, famous for its population of sea lions and fur sea lions. Head back to the catamaran and dinner.
Early in the morning head to the beautiful beach at Gardner Bay, an important breeding site for pacific green turtles. But the main attraction is the Galapagos sea lion colony, along with marine iguanas, and Galapagos Hawks. At this point you can also snorkel over to Gardner Islet and Osborn Islet that are nearby. After lunch, we visit Suarez Point, a basaltic cliff which forms a blowhole where water sprays high into the air, and where you can see sea lions, sea birds, marine Iguanas, and nesting boobies & albatross. After this activity, return to the yacht for dinner.
Early in the morning, head to Floreana Island where our first stop will be Cormorant Point. Here you will be welcomed by a small Galapagos sea lion colony, and visit two beaches: green sand beach that contains olivine crystal, and a flour sand beach made up of finer white coral sand. You may also spot stingrays along the shore. You will also visit Champion Islet. After lunch, we go to Post Office bay, established in 1793 by British whalers to send letters to and from England, and even today, visitors have the opportunity to send letters of their own. If the weather is good you may also have the opportunity to snorkel from the beach. End of the day and dinner.
