Today our expedition started very early, at around 0600, and we went deep into the forest on the Pacaya River, the farthest destination and probably one of the most beautiful locations we will be exploring during our expedition. It was a beautiful sunny day without any rain at all. This weather accompanied us the whole morning. At around 0730, we had a great breakfast outdoors under a large tree accompanied by the sounds of the rainforest.
Later, our caravan of skiffs arrived at a large, black lake called Yanayacu Lake. We stopped to stretch our legs at the Lake’s Pacaya Samiria Reserve Rangers’ Station. After, we continued with our explorations and were very lucky, finding monkeys, reptiles, and the famous hoatzin bird. After swimming in Yanayacu Lake, we returned to Delfin II.
In the afternoon, we visited a sandy riverbank where we enjoyed drinks at the end of the walk. Our most adventurous guests had a mud therapy session. It was a long day of adventure with all the wonderful ingredients of a memorable expedition - remoteness, surprises, and exuberant wildlife.
