South Plaza Island Excursion
South Plaza Island Excursion
We'll pick you up at your hotel on Santa Cruz Island at 8 am. From there, we'll take a bus for a 45-minute ride to the Itabaca Channel, where we'll board a boat to South Plaza Island.
Upon arrival, we even may be greeted by several families of sea lions at the island's dock. We'll carefully disembark to take a walk around the island, where we'll observe blue-footed boobies and iguanas resting under the shade of the cacti. We can even spot several hybrid iguanas, the result of mating between marine iguanas and land iguanas.
Next, we'll move to Punta Carrión, a small bay where we'll go snorkeling to discover the marine life of the Galápagos.
We'll make a stop to refuel with a lunch consisting of a sandwich, fruit and juice. Continuing along our route, we'll reach a cliff to check out the reddish vegetation forming a kind of blanket that covers the rocks - a panoramic view that will leave you speechless!
On the way back to the dock, we'll visit the beach that is home to one of the largest colonies of sea lions in the Galápagos Islands. At 4 pm, after eight hours of enjoying the charms of this unique natural paradise, we'll take you back to your hotel on Santa Cruz Island.
