Galapagos Best Option

360 Tour: Leon Dormido, Cerro Brujo, Punta Pitt and Bahía Rosa Blanca

A Galapagos National Park Naturalist Guide will pick you up from your hotel in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno and take you to the tourist pier. There we will board the yacht and navigate 45 minutes to Leon Dormido (Kicker Rock), which is an eroded tuff cone that serves as the habitat of several seabirds such as blue-footed boobies and masked boobies. In season (May-Dec) we may also see waved albatross.

Formed millions of years ago, Kicker Rock is one of the best places in Galapagos to snorkel and dive. Thanks to the depth and the ocean currents there is a very interesting mix of marine life such as hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks, whitetip reef sharks, rays, sea turtles, sea lions, and many fish. We will snorkel here for approximately one hour.

Next we will navigate to Cerro Brujo where we can observe the unique volcanic landscape. Then we continue on to Punta Pitt where we have the opportunity to observe red-footed boobies from the boat and try some sport fishing.

After enjoying lunch on board the yacht we’ll visit Bahia Rosa Blanca, a beautiful beach where we will walk across the lava and snorkel in a calm bay with the possibility of seeing whitetip reef sharks, sea lions, sea turtles, rays, and a variety of fish.

From here we navigate back to Puerto Baquerizo Moreno and the tour will end at the dock.
