Isla de la Plata or Little Galapagos

During this trip you will visit this beautiful island, also called small Galapagos. It is 25 km (about 1.5 hours by boat) off the coast of Puerto Lopez. In addition to frigate birds and tropic birds, you will also find blue-footed, masked and red-footed boobies and even some Galapagosal batros. The island can only be visited with a guide from the park and you are not allowed to deviate from the official trails. You make a 2 and a half hour walking tour with the nature guide. Then you return to the boat where you can spot turtles. Then you can snorkel for an hour in the bay between sea turtles and colorful fish. On the way to the island you can spot humpback whales between June and September, which use the area in large numbers as a nursery.
Difficulty: easy.
Bring along: boat windbreaker, sports shoes, water bottle, sun protection, swimming gear and camera.
