Snorkeling at the base of the iconic Pinnacle Rock offers an exceptional opportunity to explore the depths teeming with a diverse array of parrotfish, marine turtles, sea lions, and occasionally Galapagos penguins. Following a delectable lunch on board the M/Y WindRose, we will venture to Chinese Hat, a small volcano located near Santiago Island. Surrounded by spatter cones, it boasts a striking and dramatic landscape. Chinese Hat has captivated visitors with its distinct shape throughout the years. Although one of the smallest Galapagos Islands, it offers a unique visitor site with an unforgettable panoramic view. Galapagos Penguins and occasional Galapagos hawks can be spotted here, adding to the allure. Upon a wet landing at the island’s main beach, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy the sandy shore where sea lions rest and various wading birds forage along the coastline.
