Morning: Darwin Bay (Tower / Genovesa Island) In the morning, there will be a wet landing for an easy stroll on the island, where you will observe thousands of birds, mainly frigate birds, but also red footed and masked boobies, gulls, herons, finches, and mockingbirds. There is an optional walk over sharp lava and uneven terrain for dramatic views, or you may return to the beach to enjoy swimming and snorkeling at this beautiful natural harbour. Those more adventurous can snorkel along the cliffs or paddle sea kayaks. Lunch will be on board.
Afternoon: Prince Philip’s Steps (Tower / Genovesa Island) The afternoon starts with a fascinating panga ride along the cliffs and then a disembarkment (dry landing) on rocks for a steep climb (90 feet) up built stairs. Once at the top of the stairs, the land is flat, allowing for a stimulating walk of about a mile to the other side of this small island, observing large colonies of masked boobies, frigate birds, and storm petrels. Those not wishing to disembark can enjoy a longer panga ride along the cliffs (depending on weather conditions).
