Breakfast at hotel. Today we tour to the famous Punta Pitt.
We will sail from Puerto Baquerizo Moreno to investigate the northwest side of San Cristobal Island. Our first stop will be in a place known as Pitt Islet, to get ready for our first snorkel of the day. After that, we will go for a panga ride and head to Pitt Point to snorkel for the second time. After this, we will continue sailing to Punta Pitt, where a trail will lead us to a natural viewpoint where will see spectacular landscapes and have the opportunity to observe the three different species of boobies that inhabit these islands: Nazca boobies, blue, and red-footed boobies, the least populated species among the three in the archipelago. The boobies, (in Spanish known as “piqueros” due to the way they eat) feed themselves by plunging into the sea in order to dive and catch fish. Even though they are agile while flying, they walk a little clumsily, which is why their name in English is boobies (in reference to the Spanish word “bobo,” which means “silly”).
*For Scuba diving in place of snorkeling- pls add $95 (you will have 2 dives)
We will enjoy lunch aboard the boat,
