On the last full day of our expedition, National Geographic Islander II took us to San Cristobal Island. This is one of the few places where the three species of boobies can be seen in the same outing. We climbed Mount Pitt in the morning. The area is very dry and to observe all these species in their natural habitat is such a great experience for our guests. To add to this, the landscape is just exceptional.
As we came back to the beach, a small group of Galapagos sea lions were there to greet us. The most heart-warming were a female and her pup that were peacefully resting on the shoreline.
In the afternoon, we disembarked at Cerro Brujo for our last experience at sea during this expedition. This place is perfect for relaxing, swimming, and taking some last few photographs of sea lions, which can never be can too many!
To end this voyage, we enjoyed the sunset while circumnavigating around one of the most famous landmarks on San Cristobal, Kicker Rock.
