This tip of Fernandina Island is a short walk from the channel (Bolívar Channel) separating the islands of Fernandina and Isabela. This point is hit by cold currents, making it a place rich in wildlife. It is possible to observe several species of seabirds there as well as a very rare species of lava cactus. On this site, you can go hiking, snorkeling and a zodiac ride.
Dive site
This site, exposed to the coldest currents, has very cold water (14°C (58° F)) and very reduced visibility on the surface. Visibility generally becomes better below the cloudy water layer, where it can surprisingly reach up to 100 feet (30 m). This site is ideal for observing macro species, as well as electric rays, red-lipped batfish, rainbow scorpion fish and, closer to the surface, hunting marine iguanas and cormorants. The depth of the site is between 20-80 feet (6-24 m).
