Early in the morning on the first day of our expedition, we were greeted by a pod of dolphins on our way to Rabida Island. Located in the center of the archipelago, Rabida holds an incredible variety of wildlife, including flamingos, oyster catchers, Galapagos doves, lava lizards, and marine iguanas. After breakfast, we departed for our snorkeling outing. Playful Galapagos sea lions, whitetip reef sharks, and many species of fish joined us in the water. It was a wonderful morning!
We spent the afternoon visiting Puerto Egas on Santiago Island. We disembarked on a beautiful black-sand beach, and just a few steps into our walk, we were surprised by a very healthy Galapagos land iguana. The bright yellow coloration of the iguana was hard to miss. We finished our walk exploring the stunning landscape of Puerto Egas as the guests took pictures in the scenic grottos found on site.
