Once at Bartolome, you will take a short hike to the island’s highest viewpoint (approximately 115 meters above sea level), a spectacular 360º view of the archipelago. The hike is short and easy and offers plenty of nature to admire.

Some of the vegetation in Bartolome includes Chamaesyce spp, Tiquilia nesiotica and Tiquilia fusca. From the top and east part of the viewpoint you can catch a sight of some spatter cones, formed by drops of thick lava. These cones are known as parasite cones and add a dream-like appearance to the island.

After enjoying the panoramic view, you will descend to enjoy the Lunch Box.

After the snorkel activity, we will return to Puerto Ayora around 5:30pm.
