Itinerary A | Xavier III Yacht

Lobos Island

Fly to San Cristobal Island. Meet your guide and then transfer to the boat. You can visit Isla Lobos in afternoon to see blue-footed boobies as well as marine iguanas or sea lions.

This tiny island is ideal for wildlife encounters. You can explore it by foot or boat. You can take a panga ride and see the shorebirds nesting and feeding. You will find two types of sea lions and a small colony blue-footed bobies.

You can snorkel right from the beach at Isla Lobos among the sea lions' families and curious pups. You can spot nesting frigatebirds as well as the blue-footed bobies, which are often found on the shore. You should bring your camera so you can capture some great shots at this prime wildlife viewing spot.

North Seymour Island

North Seymour Island is home to amazing wildlife experiences. This island is alive with life. You can follow trails to see the entire action, but you may have to yield to passing sea lions or marine iguanas while walking. Blue-footed booby nests are where mating pairs perform the courtship dance. You can see flocks of pelicans enjoying lunch at a dive bomb feeding frenzy on a rocky shore. Then, head inland to find a large nesting area of majestic frigatebirds. These large, dark acrobats are two metres (6.5 feet) in length and sit in high bushes watching over their chicks. You can also enjoy a snorkeling trip among sea lions or rays to finish off your excursion.

Explore the underwater world at North Seymour's Beach. You will be greeted by large schools and numbers of tropical fish, sea lions, as well as sea turtles and sharks.
