Our first full day in the islands started with a bang. We added outstanding sightings and behavioral observations to our wildlife list. North Seymour has incredible birdlife, reptiles, and marine mammals that are visible from the trail as well as from Zodiacs along the shore. We visited Rabida in the afternoon. Many guests are now prepared for snorkeling. We observed lagoon birds courting and nesting in low light on the red sand. It is hard to describe in words, and even photographs don’t always capture the impact of these islands. You must come visit to believe.
