Flying to Baltra we cross to Puerto Ayora on Santa Cruz Island. Here we visit the Highlands and the Galapagos tortoise research program at Darwin Station. In the afternoon, we board the Peregrine Endeavour and cruise to Leon Domido and the large island of San Cristobal where we visit the Interpretation Centre and the rugged volcanic peaks of Cerro Brujo. Next stop is isolated Espanola Island where we find waved albatross, blue-footed and masked boobies, Galapagos hawks, Darwin finches, sea lions and marine iguanas. On the island of Floreana we visit Post Office Bay, a great spot for snorkelling full of sea lions and colourful fish. Arriving back at Santa Cruz Island, we visit Black Turtle Cove and cruise amongst the mangroves. The wildlife and scenery on this voyage are quite simply amazing!
