We arrived in the western realm of the Galápagos Islands. Early in the morning, National Geographic Islander II circumnavigated an emerging volcano called Roca Redonda, a great place to observe different kinds of seabirds.
After breakfast we crossed the equator as we were navigating towards Punta Vicente Roca. We had the chance to observe Ecuador Volcano, which only partially remains due to the last eruption when half of it sank into the ocean.
To complete the morning we had an incredible Zodiac ride followed by a snorkel excursion in the company of penguins, turtles, and sea lions.
Later in the day we moved locations to the youngest island and home of the largest population of marine iguanas. We explored the shores, finishing off an amazing day here in the Galápagos Islands.
