The Resort we are now staying is right on the water and will offer photo opportunities.<\/p>\n
DAY 1 – Puerto Ayora on Santa Cruz Island<\/b><\/p>\n
Full day walk exploring Cerro Mesa. We shoot a host of subjects with key shoots including tortoise, rainforest and the beautifully red Vermillion Flycatcher (Darwin\u2019s Flycatcher).<\/p>\n
DAY 2 – Yacht Narel I – Plazas Island and Punta Carrion<\/b>
\nThe landing is dry, the dock is often taken over by large male sea-lions and their young, so before it is safe to land the guides have to \u2018shoo them away\u2019 by clapping.<\/p>\n
Step carefully over the white guano and crab-covered rocks.<\/p>\n
Opportunity to photograph land iguanas will then follow.<\/p>\n
DAY 3 – North Seymour and Bachas Beach<\/b>
\nLying just to the north of Baltra, Seymour is a low island consisting of uplifted submarine lava. The landing is rich in wildlife: sea-lions, swallow-tailed gulls, lava gulls, tropicbirds, brown noddy terns and pelicans. The trail is a large loop; you can either go clockwise along the shore or head inland to visit the booby colony first.<\/p>\n
DAY 4 – Bartolome Island and Sullivan Bay<\/b>
\nThe beach landing is wet. A short ten-minute walk across a sand dune takes you to the southern beach, where harmless black-tipped reef sharks and rays are often seen in the warm, shallow water.<\/p>\n
Ghost crabs creep over the sand and disappear as you approach. Look up at the sky and often you may see a juvenile Galapagos hawk hovering overhead.<\/p>\n
DAY 5 – Your choice<\/b>
\nMaybe a sunrise shoot and reflect on the rather hectic couple of weeks and think about the upcoming trip to Easter Island.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
