DAY 2: TUNELES ROSE CAPE

It is an iconic place on Isabela Island formed entirely by volcanic lava where you can see penguins and sea turtles, you can also see nests of newly hatched blue-footed boobies (depending on the seasons). This beautiful place is home to the Galapagos sharks known as Tintoreras and is the only place in the Archipelago where you can see Seahorses.

We first go to Roca Union, a small islet located in the open sea where you can observe Pelicans, Nazca Boobies and Blue-footed Boobies and the occasional sea lion resting on the rocks.
After this short stop we sail for about 45 minutes to reach one of the most beautiful landscapes of rocky lava formations in the Galapagos Islands, it is called tunnels because in ancient eruptions, lava passed under the earth forming tunnels that later collapsed and gave rise to these arches over the water where you can clearly see vegetation coming out of the rocks, crystal clear water, sea lions fluttering between the arches.
Afterwards, we move to the site known as Finados for snorkeling with sea turtles, “Tintoreras” sharks, golden rays, eagle rays, seahorses, fish such as the Cirujanos, Damicelas,. The tour includes a light box lunch on the boat after the two activities, after lunch we prepare for the return to Isabela.
