Today you will enjoy an amazing day trip to an uninhabited island on the west side, after a 45 minutes boat ride from Puerto Baquerizo Moreno. The world-famous Kicker Rock, also called “Leon dormido” in Spanish consists of two stunning vertical walls/rock formation of 500 ft. surrounded by abundant sea life, especially sharks, the famous and timid hammerhead. While snorkeling around the walls, you have great sightings of marine life, including sea turtles and sea lions.
During the excursion you also have time to explore one of the many beautiful beaches close to Kicker Rock where you will have time to relax or do some extra snorkeling.
We arrive back to Puerto Baquerizo Moreno early afternoon, where you can enjoy some free time in town.

Day 3 • Enjoy a bite of paradise

At the scheduled time, you will be transferred either to the airport for your flight back to mainland Ecuador or to the port to begin your cruise. The airport is only 5 minutes from the town, so you still have more time to enjoy the beach before departing.
