Our day started on Gardner Bay with an early morning walk. Loads of sea lions and a bunch of iguanas showed up to welcome us to this elder island with rocky ecosystems. After breakfast, we snorkeled with schools of colorful and silvery fish species and playful sea lion pups. In the afternoon, we visited Punta Suarez. We deployed our Zodiacs and went for an amazing ride along the cliffs to look for waved albatrosses, Nazca boobies, and Galapagos shearwaters.
