We started our day with a nice and calm pre-breakfast walk along Espumilla Beach. After breakfast, we had the option of snorkeling, kayaking, or cruising in a glass-bottom boat. In each of those activities, wildlife surrounded us. For lunch, the galley staff of the National Geographic Endeavour II surprised us with a traditional Ecuadorian feast. The crew wore traditional Panama hats and hand-painted t-shirts, and we all enjoyed the colorful and tasty event, which was followed by an amazing natural history walk along Puerto Egas in the afternoon. It was a full day of activities, but the surprises were not over. Our busy galley team organized a BBQ dinner on the sky deck. What a treat to dine under a sky full of stars!
