Floreana presents a rich history with mystery and intrigue. Set foot on a green-sand beach alive with the sounds of sea lions. Follow a trail to a brackish lagoon, home of pintail dicks, common stilts, and the pinkest flamingos in the world. Wind your way past a rich variety of plants including morning glories, cutleaf daisies, palo verdes and scalesias to the other side of the Island. Once there, find yourself standing in power-soft flour sand.
Sea turtles lay their eggs in the sand dunes.
Rays swim in the shallow water beyond the beach. Snorkel at Devil's Crown, a shallow sunken crater colonized by a brilliant array of colorful fish and coral. Visit the Charles Darwin Research Station. Scientists from all over the globe work at the station and conduct biological research from amatomy to zoology. Get your picture taken with the giant tortoises.
