area with an abundance of birds.

The clear water provides an excellent opportunity for enjoying swimming and snorkeling.

This striking rock formation is located a couple hours off the western shore of San Cristobal. Jutting out of the water, the rocks
stand vertically at hundreds of feet above the ocean divided by a small channel. Although there are no landing areas,
circumnavigation and dinghy rides allow visitors to spot a variety of marine life.

where there is a cliff that the large albatrosses use as a launching pad! You will have the chance to see the famous blowhole that
spurts sea water into the air. The landscape is great for photography.
