Today we had to get started even earlier than the day before. We grabbed breakfast and then headed out to Santa Cruz Island. We explored the Darwin Research Station and the town of Puerto Ayora. We got to see a bunch of tortoises throughout the park. On the walk through town there were a bunch of nice galleries and we watched fishermen cleaning their catches with pelicans and Sea Lions waiting for scraps. We made it back to the boat in time for lunch.

After a much needed nap we gathered all the gear again and headed to the red beaches of Rabida Island. We did a hike around the island. We followed it up with a snorkel. We saw a bunch of cool fish, including parrot, starfish and blowfish.
