Adventure Coordinators Insider Tip:

While snorkelling in the Galapagos it is not uncommon to come eye to eye (or should we say nose to nose) with sea lions and turtles. They are as curious about you as you are about them! Santa Fe and Isabela offer some of the best opportunities to swim with sea lions.
