We have travelled overnight to Mosquera Island just north of Baltra where we first landed at the airport.
We start the morning with some more bird watching and are treated to Frigate Birds still with their bright red mating pouches gliding along above us. Then we head to shore to explore Mosquera Island and a longer ride via rubber dinghy where we get to see the Magnificent Frigate Birds nesting in the trees.
We sail to Baltra Island to refuel and reprovision, and then on to Bachas Beach to explore and snorkel. We set sail again in the evening to Bartolome Island about 3 hours away.
