| Darwin Bay is located inside the partly submerged crater of Genovesa Island, the Galapagos bird paradise. Although it is a small visitor site, it is home to abundant wildlife. Along the small white-sand beach, you can observe red-footed boobies, Nazca boobies, frigate birds and swallow-tailed gulls. There is also a small colony of sea lions and Galapagos’ smallest marine iguanas. A trail leads from the beach to a higher part where palo santo trees grow and from where you have a nice view. From the beach, you can go snorkeling and swimming. |
