Bartolomé & Santiago Islands
It’s our last day in the Galápagos Islands. Early in the morning we woke up to ascend to the top of Bartolomé Island. We had to climb 372 steps to reach the summit, and were rewarded with incredible scenery! It was worth all our hard work. We could see other islands in the distance, stared at the beautiful contrasting colors of the different volcanic formations and the scarce vegetation that has managed to arrive on this young island.
After the visit we went back on board to have breakfast and we were ready to continue our day with water activities at Bartolomé. It was a sunny day, perfect for swimming at the beach, snorkeling and exploring in the glass bottom boat. Almost all of us got the chance to see a few penguins, we felt very lucky when they approached us and swam right next to us.
In the afternoon we visited Santiago Island; we snorkeled from the beach and later on we went for a peaceful walk along the coastline where we founnd marine iguanas, Sally Lightfoot crabs, herons and Galápagos fur sea lions. It was a great day in the astonishing Galápagos Islands.
