Today was our last full day exploring the Galapagos Islands aboard National Geographic Islander II, and we visited San Cristobal Island. We started the day by visiting Punta Pitt, the easternmost point in the archipelago. We observed various eroding tuff volcanoes. During our walk in the shrubby area, we found red-footed boobies nesting, perching, and resting. After the hike, everybody had an opportunity to swim, snorkel, and paddleboard in the fantastic bay. In the afternoon, guests enjoyed spending time on the white sand beach with charismatics sea lions. What a way to finish an amazing expedition around the Galapagos Islands.
