DAY 4
AM: Punta Pitt
Punta Pitt (Pitt Point) is located in the northeastern tip of San Cristobal Island and is the only place in the archipelago where is possible to see the 3 different species of boobies (blue- footed, red-footed and masked) as well as the 2 species of frigate birds sharing a common space. The site has a trail that goes up a cliff and through a ravine, leading to an area with abundant birdlife. This site is also known for being a good snorkeling spot of San Cristobal Island.
PM: Lobos Island
Lobos Island is located near San Cristobal, in the southern part of the Archipelago. This visitor site has a trail of 850 meters that crossed almost all of the island. There is a small population of blue-footed boobies and common frigate birds nesting at this site, that is also inhabited by the two species of sea lions present in the archipelago.
This is also a great site for snorkeling, as the waters are calm and not so deep, so it’s common to see juvenile sea lions, manta rays, and sea turtles.
