Early this morning, we went ashore to explore the eastern region of Santiago Island. We reached the shore of Sullivan Bay, a relatively young lava flow that has changed very little and is quite intact. Towards the end of the walk, we returned to National Geographic Delfina to have a well-deserved breakfast. Later in the morning, we went to a nearby beach and had the opportunity to swim and snorkel from the shore.
In the afternoon, we snorkeled in deep waters and watched several species of fish and a very inquisitive Galapagos penguin that came to take a closer look at us. After snorkeling we returned onboard and got ready to go ashore for an invigorating hike to the top of Bartholomew.
