The Galapagos Seaman boat stops next on Isabela Island, first at the splendid Urbina Bay. Here, unusually, coral can be seen protruding from the sea as a result of volcanic activity.
Later today, a trip to Tagus Cove allows us to view the names written by early visitors – pirates and whalers – on the cliffs and along the shore line. This Galapagos visitor site is a bird watcher’s paradise, with plenty of land and seabirds to be seen.
Galapagos wildlife to spot here today: Flightless cormorant, land iguana, giant tortoise, turtles, rays, sea lions, finches, hawks, warblers, flycatchers.
