The perfect combination of wildlife and cultural education was awaiting our guests on an action-packed Monday. By the time the sun crested the mountains, the entire staff and crew of National Geographic Venture was at the ready to transport our snorkeling guests to a colony of California sea lions. Because no wildlife siting can beat being inches away from sea lions, we then followed the bow-riding dolphins to La Paz.
After a quick ice cream break, our guests made their way to the Teatro Juarez for a private cultural show featuring song and dance from four states of Mexico. The night came to an end after a mariachi band led us to dinner at a restaurant closed to all but Lindblad Expeditions guests.
