We navigate approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes to Pinzón Island, passing by Roca Sin Nombre. On occasion, we may spot dolphins as we head north.
Located in the heart of the archipelago, Pinzón boasts beautiful waters inhabited by small corals and warm currents for most of the year. Here, we enjoy an extended snorkeling session of about 40 minutes, with the chance to observe reef sharks, sea turtles, sea lions, tropical fish, and starfish.
We then head to Bahía Borrero, where we disembark on a white sand beach — a nesting site for sea turtles — ideal for walking and swimming.
Our journey continues to Daphne Major Islet, where we jump into its plankton-rich waters to swim alongside whitetip reef sharks. Depending on the season, there may also be chances to spot manta rays, along with sea lions and tropical fish.
