Following that, we’re off to Santiago Island and Chinese Hat Islet, each of which provides Guests with mesmerizing insights into the beauty and life that exists in the archipelago.

The next day, we’ll awaken to the gorgeous Genovesa Island — with its massive crater that we sail into — and its plethora of bird species, with exciting moments on land and in the sea.
