    B ) Santa Fe Tour: Once at the site, we do a panga ride in the bay to make sightings of colonies of sea lions with their young. Likewise we will have the iconic presence of Opuntia cacti and on many occasions seabirds such as the blue-footed booby. As a second activity we do two snorkeling times around the reef area (45 minutes per snorkeling), where you can make an impressive appreciation of a marine fauna stocked by a number of endemic species. Lunch on board takes place between these activities.

    C ) Pinzon Tour: We board the boat and travel to Pinzón Island in a journey of approximately an hour and a half. At the site we can do a snorkeling time or two depending on the situation at the previous visit point.

    We will go to La Lobería (small islet located 10 minutes away from the port), site where we carry out the snorkeling activity in which there is the possibility of swimming with sea lions.

    Then we moved to Punta Estrada to watch birds such as: blue-footed boobies, seagulls and pelicans.

    Our third activity consists of an excursion to the Playa de los dogs where we can find iguanas in quantity around an area of volcanic rocks and sesuvium.

    Likewise, we continue towards the Channel of Love and the Shark Channel (in the latter we can make sightings of blue sharks).

    Turtle Bay Tour Self Visit: Located on Santa Cruz Island. It is an almost very difficult place to miss. Its beauty and flora invite us to recognize it as a site at the level of what nature offers us in the beautiful archipelago, 10 minutes from the port of the island we find a path (2,500 meters long) that will guide us to Tortuga Bay.

    A highly recommended beach among locals.

    It is perfectly preserved and with the presence of wild animals such as iguanas, beach crabs. Swimming is only allowed in the mangrove swamp that is separated from the beach. The sand is completely soft and white, the largest on the island. In the mangroves it is very common to find walking multicolored crabs, brown pelicans, marine iguanas, white tip reef sharks and Galapagos tortoises.

    Another way to access the site is through water taxis in the form of a tour which can be offered as a tour
