Today we had an optional early wet landing at Cormorant Point’s visitor site to search for flamingoes and turtles. We also had a fun opportunity to see a few sea lions, Sally Lightfoot crabs and many birds.
We returned on board for breakfast as we repositioned to our snorkeling site. Today’s underwater wildlife was surreal. Sea lions, a variety of fish species in a range of colors, turtles, sharks, rays, and more. We are currently experiencing the changing seasons, and the sea life is mating because warmer water more quickly incubates the eggs into embryos.
We were back on board for lunch as we repositioned again heading to the world-famous Post-Office Bay. We exchanged post cards left from prior visitors hoping to have them hand-delivered, just like the ones our guests are leaving behind today. Some of us opted for kayaking, snorkeling, or a pleasant walk at the beach.
This evening, we enjoyed the recap and briefing about our next destination. We are now deeply united with this magical feeling of coexistence and respect for one another inspired by this special place, the Galapagos Islands.
