THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS: A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY – Chapter 6 (Day 6, Wednesday)
We awoke on the south coast of Isabela and spent the morning snorkeling in a beautiful mangrove-lined bay. Then we visited the Arnaldo Tupiza Breeding Center where several rare tortoise varieties are being preserved. We ended the day enjoying the charming town of Puerto Villamil.
