Galapagos: Isabella Island

Even though there is a lot to see on Isabella Island, we show some more pictures of another snorkeling trip to Tuneles, a fascinating volcanic formation in the ocean with lots of wildlife. Bird breeding rock along the way:

 

 The Tuneles are inhabitated by a wide range of wildlife, such as Penguins...
 
 

... sea lions...
 

 

... and blue footed boobies. Lets stay with them for a few pictures:
 

 

 

 

 

And finally we get underwater.
 
  
 

Even though we didn't manage to get pictures, one of the highlights of this trip was checking out white tipped reef sharks as they slept in dark underwater caves. We were basically shoved into the cave by our guides and could see them up close, either sleeping on the ground or swimming around in the cave.
