A small private yacht charter into the outer islands to snorkel alongside playful sea lions, sea turtles, and reef sharks in one of the planet's last untouched marine sanctuaries.
What to expect
You'll cruise out to a protected cove where a certified naturalist briefs you on the marine life before you slip into the water among curious sea lions. Between snorkel sessions, the crew serves a fresh ceviche lunch on deck. The afternoon often includes a short island walk to see blue-footed boobies up close.
