Today was a superb day. We had a lot of fun in the water as well as on land. We kayaked early in the morning to appreciate the beauty of Post Office Bay and the surrounding wildlife. Here we also had the opportunity to be part of a Galapagos tradition dating back to the 18th century: the mailing and delivering of letters from this bay to the world. Later we went snorkeling where the curious sea lions entertained our guests with all their playfulness. The magic continued in the afternoon when we observed a flamboyance of thirty flamingos, the cuteness of some baby blue-footed boobies, and the breathtaking landscapes of this lovely island, Floreana.

San Cristobal Island
Our expedition to Punta Pitt on San Cristobal Island was an unforgettable journey. At dawn, we walked along a path surrounded by volcanic formations, revealing stunning landscapes at every turn. The striking contrast between the dark rocks and the lush vegetation immersed us in the raw beauty of nature. Throughout the hike, we had the privilege of observing blue-footed and red-footed boobies, finches, and mockingbirds up close. The presence of these majestic and unbothered birds fostered a deep connection with the environment. The beauty of the scenery, the refreshing air, and the harmony with the flora and fauna made this experience truly transformative, leaving a lasting impression on us. During the afternoon, we visited one of the most beautiful beaches in Galapagos, Cerro Brujo, where we enjoyed a relaxing stretching session accompanied by the sound of the waves. The beauty of the landscape made this expedition an unforgettable experience.
