Your day begins heading towards Sullivan Bay, where you will enjoy the marine fauna of the Galapagos while you snorkel. Sullivan Bay is one of the most beautiful places in the Galapagos to snorkel due to its crystal-clear waters! Following your snorkeling experience at Sullivan Bay, continue your adventure to Bartolomé Island. Lunch will be served onboard.
Bartolome Island is located northwest of Santa Cruz, mostly known for its Pinnacle Rock. Here you will have the opportunity to see one of the most beautiful landscapes of the Galapagos Islands while learning about the volcanic origins of the Islands.
Upon arriving at Bartolome, have a dry landing. Then, begin the walk along a path that will take us to the top of the island. The 395 steps will end with a spectacular panoramic view of the island and its pinnacle, being the moment to take that stunning photo of our trip. Observe small lava tunnels from the last eruption during the walk. The terrain is full of endemic vegetation grows, such as lava cacti and tiquilla plants, generally surrounded by Darwin's finches. Pinnacle Rock was formed by volcanic ash. After the walk and being impressed by the view, enjoy a zodiac ride along the coast. Then, with some luck, you will see the only tropical penguin and the second smallest in the world, the penguin from Galapagos.
After all, return to Itabaca Channel and enjoy a bus ride to the Puerto Ayora pier.
