Today we started our expedition with a pre-breakfast hike on Plaza Island. Galapagos sea lions, many seabirds, and Galapagos marine iguanas and land iguanas surrounded us. This is a very small islet, but it has many sites to see. After breakfast, we moved to Santa Fe Island. We had the opportunity to do our first round of kayaking and snorkeling in a beautiful bay with many sea turtles and baby sea lions. To end the day, we hiked along Santa Fe. We spotted our third species of iguana today, the Santa Fe land iguana.
