Today’s destination was Floreana Island, a magical place that hosts many mysteries. We found something beautiful everywhere we looked. We began the day with a visit to the post office barrel, a historic site where whalers and buccaneers left letters inside a barrel in hopes that a passing ship might hand-deliver the letters back home. Visitors keep this tradition alive today. Guests enjoyed Zodiac rides, kayaking, walks on the beach and snorkeling during the day. Later in the afternoon, we explored Punta Cormorant on a beautiful nature walk.
