Passengers disembarked at Prince Phillip’s steps for a long hike through a variety of seabirds: red-footed boobies, Nazca boobies, storm petrels, and swallow-tailed gulls. Guests had the opportunity to witness a short-eared owl feeding on a storm petrel just off the path. Later, guests enjoyed a snorkel along a steep cliff formation that drops into a collapsed crater below the sea where we saw a large marbled ray and the beautiful Moorish idol fish.
