Today we had the first full day of our expedition on one of the jewels of the crown, Española Island. This is one of the oldest islands in the archipelago with some of the most amazing scenery and wildlife. Our guests had an amazing experience! In the morning, we had close encounters with sea lions at Gardner Beach, where we were able to play with them during our first snorkeling session. In the afternoon, we were so lucky and found a pod with over 500 bottlenose dolphins during our Zodiac ride. We also enjoyed a beautiful sunset. What a day!
