| Punta Cormorant on the north coast of Floreana Island is the next location on our itinerary. Perhaps we
are fortunate and may observe green turtles on the beach or sting rays in the shallow waters. Just behind the beach, in a large lagoon, flamingoes sift the sediment of the salty water in a constant search for food.
After the shore excursion, the dinghies take us to nearby Devil's Crown, a partly submerged, eroded crater. The crystal clear waters with an abundance of underwater life are a paradise for
snorkelers and divers.
Our guide will have told us some of the intriguing human history of Floreana and in the afternoon we will visit the legendary Post Office Bay and/or Black Beach, where the Wittmer family resides."
