Urbina Bay is the result of a recent volcanic uplifting event that occurred in 1954. The caldera floor of Alcedo volcano collapsed, and a few kilometers of coastal reef was uplifted from the ocean floor. Galapagos penguins, flightless cormorants, sea turtles, blue-footed boobies, and diverse wildlife were found around it. It was amazing!
Tagus Cove consists of a crater lake formed through the volcanic tuff and has created an incredible landscape, one of the most photographed of the islands.
