Today we woke up inside of the majestic caldera of Genovesa Volcano, which happens to be in the northern hemisphere of the archipelago. We started the day with a visit to Darwin Bay which was full of red-footed boobies, the largest population in the world at approximately 200,000. The morning ended with a phenomenal snorkeling excursion.
After lunch, we went for a kayaking outing along one of the cliffs of the island where we saw many seabirds nesting and resting on the rocks all along the coast. Later, we visited Prince Phillip’s Steps where we walked through the incense trees and yellow cordia forest that led us to a lava field full of wildlife. We finished the activities of the day with a sunset wine tasting event.
It was a beautiful day in Galapagos, a fantastic journey in Ecuador!
