The first stop was at Santa Fe which was
pretty uneventful. We saw a few fish but
the current was quite strong so we got back on board and waited for our next
stop.
The next snorkelling spot was a place called
Kicker Rock was a small cluster of rocks in the middle of the ocean with a
small channel between two of the rocks.
It was fantastic snorkelling. We
saw sea turtles, reef sharks and a sea lion having a rest.
Our last snorkelling spot was just off the
coast of San Cristobal and was home to a colony of sea lions. It was mainly young playful pups who let you
swim up close and play with them in the water.
They were so friendly and curious and not at all afraid to have us all
there in the water with them.
Following this we headed to San Cristobal
for lunch and learnt that the island is home to one of the biggest colonies of
sea lions. Sea lions were everywhere and
they were not afraid to make their presence known. Here sea lions get right of way and first
choice of seating.
