A DAY IN THE LIFE

EDITION 2:30 PM | SNORKELING OR GLASS-BOTTOM BOAT Zodiacs depart for snorkeling along the coast of Isabela Island—a great place to encounter green turtles, marine iguanas and more in these rich waters. Keep a close lookout for Galápagos penguins, flying through the waters after schools of fish.

4:00 PM | ZODIAC SAFARI Prepare for an exhilarating Zodiac cruise along the coast— a showcase for volcanic features, nesting penguins and flightless cormorants and nocturnal Galápagos fur seals hauled out to rest. Help your naturalists search for the endangered Galápagos martin to report its presence and behavior to scientists at the Charles Darwin Foundation.

5:45 PM | EXACTLY ON THE EQUATOR: VOLCAN ECUADOR Join us on the Observation Deck for wine tasting and some fun as we navigate north crossing the Equator at sunset. King Neptune may make an appearance— and bragging rights swag will be given out!

6:45 PM | READY FOR RECAP Everyone meets in the Lounge for tonight’s Recap and a preview of tomorrow. Naturalist Jonathan and National Geographic Global Explorer volunteers Elissa and David have a live demonstration planned of their haul from this afternoon’s plankton tow. Don’t be late!

9:00 PM | SEEING STARS Night sky stargazing, if conditions allow. The Southern Cross is at its highest point in the sky after dinner tonight. Bring your binoculars for this show-and-tell with Carlos.
