Today National Geographic Islander is anchored on Wreck Bay, located just in front of the capital of the Galapagos Islands, Puerto Baquerizo Moreno. Our guests had the opportunity to start the day with a very active Zodiac ride along the town coast. Then, logistics were prepared to head to the highlands where we visited el Junco, a freshwater lagoon at 760m from sea level. Here some frigate birds were having a fun time washing their plumage in the lagoon. Afterword we arrived at Otoi, a restaurant where we had lunch ready for us. We then headed to the Galapaguera and saw newborn tortoises that will be released into the wild at five years old.
