After only approx. 50 minutes of navigation, Santa Fe Island will be reached, one of the best snorkel spots in Galapagos. This very calm bay with crystal clear, turquoise water (like a natural swimming pool) is the perfect place to swim with sea lions; the younger, more playful ones love to get into the water with the snorkelers, twirling and chasing around - an absolutely unique experience!
Besides the sea lions, the underwater world has a lot more to offer: Sea turtles, sharks, lots of tropical fish, eagle rays and more.
There are also many birds that can be observed; blue-footed boobies, frigate birds, mockingbirs and if lucky even the Galapagos hawk.
The landscape is stunningly beautiful, the contrast of the the turquoise water against the dark lava rocks, the cacti as well as the white sand beach full of sea lions.
After a freshly prepared lunch, if sea conditions allow it, there will be a disembarkation on Hidden Beach, a magnificent remote white sand beach. You can either just relax on the beach or do a discovery walk with the guide, to find big marine iguanas, pelicans and mangroves.
There will also be the opportunity to do some fishing from the boat on the way back.
