A naturalist-led walk among nesting albatross, blue-footed boobies, and marine iguanas found nowhere else on Earth.
What to expect
A licensed naturalist guide, required by park regulation, leads a small group along marked trails past waved albatross colonies (seasonal), sea lion rookeries, and marine iguana clusters. The pace is slow and observational, with the guide explaining evolutionary adaptations unique to each species.
