Santa Cruz is the second largest island in the Galapagos Archipelago. Today, we explored a new and different site on this immense landmass, the area where land iguanas reign: Dragon Hill. Later in the morning we had a refreshing snorkeling experience and after lunch we were ready for a new adventure at Borrero Bay.
In the afternoon the conditions were ideal for paddleboarding and Zodiac rides, and our Global Explorers had Zodiac driving lessons. Memorable experiences were had by all.
At sunset, we joined on the observation deck for wine tasting while we sailed around Daphne Major, the laboratory of evolution for Peter and Rosemary Grant. We were surprised by pirates and a king turtle from the sea. They brought a piece of the Equatorial line, so we celebrated the crossing.
