This was our final day in the western part of the archipelago, and we spent it well, dedicating our entire day at Isabela Island. In the morning we visited Urbina Bay, where we managed to spot more than 30 Alcedo giant tortoises! It was unbelievable. Several colorful Galapagos land iguanas were seen too. In the afternoon National Geographic Islander redirected to Tagus Cove, a historical site, where our guests spent the day snorkeling beside sea turtles and penguins and riding Zodiacs and paddleboards along the coast. What remarkable fortune it has been to experience the Galapagos this way.
