Today aboard National Geographic Endeavour II we had the opportunity to start the day with our morning photography walk at Urbina Bay, a black sandy beach located on the rim of Alcedo Volcano on Isabela Island. As we walked along the trail, we had close encounters with yellow land iguanas and giant Alcedo tortoises! After the hike, some guests returned to the ship by Zodiac ride and others had a refreshing swim at the shore of Urbina Bay Beach. Today we had a delicious and traditional Ecuadorian buffet lunch where we learned the proper way to eat ceviche.

Then, National Geographic Endeavour II moved to Tagus Cove, another location on Isabela Island. In this beautiful and protected cove, guests got the opportunity to paddleboard, kayak, and snorkel surrounded by marine life including curious Galapagos penguins. As a last activity of the day, we took a Zodiac ride along the cove with a beautiful sunset. Perfect way to end our journey.
