Today the National Geographic Islander is anchored near Sombrero Chino Islet, located southwest of Santiago Island. Between these islands, we have a very nice shallow channel with crystal water where our guests could enjoy the beach, zodiac ride, kayaking, paddle board and snorkeling! During those activities, our guest watched sea lions, penguins, marine Iguanas, brown pelicans, frigate birds, sharks and many types of fish! Later on, during our navigation, the National Geographic Islander got close to Bainbridge Islet and we could see the Galapagos flamingo feeding on a brackish lagoon inside the crater.

The afternoon walk was on Sullivan Bay were the light, shapes, layers and lava figures were so diverse that it is the perfect destination to get on practice our photography lessons.
