S/C Nemo II_Itinerario_South Itinerary B – 8 Days_Day6

DAY 6

AM: South Plazas

The beautiful landscapes of South Plazas are formed by the channel of turquoise waters that contrast against the white sand and black lava shoreline. Past the shoreline, the island is covered by the colorful scarlet sesuvium and the bright green prickly-pear cacti. 

Here it is easy to observe the yellow and grey land iguanas waiting for the fruit of the cacti to fall. Visitors can also observe sea lion colonies, frigates, swallow- tailed gulls, and shearwaters.

PM: Santa Fe

Santa Fe island has a beautiful and calm bay and a white sand beach, which is home to a large colony of sea lions. A trail will take us to the inner part of the island where we will observe the endemic land iguana (present only on this  island) lounging around the giant prickly pear cacti. 

The visit ends with some snorkeling in the bay to observe the imposing marine life present in the island´s waters.
