Galapagos:
San Cristobal Island
The
Island of San Cristobal is where your adventure will begin. The Lammer
Law will be waiting for you in the harbor near the airport.
Kickers Rock (Leon
Dormido)
A vertical tuff cone, abruptly rising almost 500 feet from the ocean.
Erosion has split the rock and given its characteristic shape. Blue footed
boobies, masked boobies, frigate birds and sea lions line the shore. This
dive site nearby is Kickers Rock. Here you'll find turtles, morays, schools
of king angelfish and creolefish among the rocky underwater terrain.
Puerto Baquerizo
Moreno
The Capital of the Galapagos Islands (population 4,000) and the oldest
settlement. In 1985, an airstrip was built for flights. A small naval
museum, souvenir shops and houses make up this small bayside village.
El
Junco Lake
The only sizeable fresh water lake in Galapagos where we find stilts,
white-cheeked pintail ducks and common gallinules. We pass through several
vegetation zones and the farming community, El Progreso.
Isla
Lobos
Less than an hour from San Cristobal, Lobos Islet is a seasonal nesting
location for the blue footed boobie, although it is named for the sea
lions sometimes present there.
Playa Ochoa
Wet A small Island just an hour from San Cristobal. A subtle introduction
to the Galapagos with a short trail leading to a sand beach good for swimming.
Pelicans and other Galapagos sea birds fly up overhead.
