This morning, we woke up, grabbed our expedition gear, and embarked on our Zodiacs to go explore Plazas Islet. This place is home to a large colony of sea lions, plenty of land iguanas, marine iguanas, and also nesting swallow-tailed gulls. The islet is covered with the Galapagos carpet weed, which turns red during the dry season, and gives the islet a very exotic touch.
We came back on time for a delicious breakfast, and later, we took some of our most adventurous guests to explore the area by Zodiac.
During the afternoon, water activities took place on Santa Fe Island, and snorkeling with sea lions was such an incredible sighting for our guests. Later in the afternoon, we disembarked to a large colony of sea lions on the beach, put on our good walking shoes, and went to explore the rest of the trail, where pale land iguanas, mockingbirds, and other species could be observed and photographed. The highlight of the afternoon was for sure a couple of Galapagos hawks that were flying in the area.
What a great day!
