Nemo II

Nemo II, a trans-oceanic Alumarine 72-foot multihull catamaran yacht that can be used for charters and cruising, is called Trans-oceanic Alumarine 72-foot.

This is an ambitious itinerary that takes you to remote tourist sites on uninhabited islands.&nbsp;The same itinerary takes you to Genovesa (Santiago, Santiago, Fernandina, and Isabela).&nbsp;It is difficult to top the number of wildlife encounters and visitor sites that include giant tortoises, giant cormorants, tropical penguins and marine iguanas.&nbsp;The Nemo II, a sailing catamaran, combines speed with stability.

<h2>North Seymour Island</h2>

<p>Dry landing.&nbsp;Nature walk in North Seymour</p>

<p>It is approximately 2.25 km (1.25 mi) long and crosses the inland of the island. It also explores the rugged coast.&nbsp;The trail crosses the inland of the island and explores the rocky coast. It also passes Blue-Footed Boobie colonies.&nbsp;Magnificent Frigatebird is a large, black bird that has a wide wingspan and a hooked beak. It is fast and excellent at vision.&nbsp;The large, red pouch at the necks of Frigatebirds is a signature feature.&nbsp;Boobies have a fascinating relationship with Frigates.&nbsp;The nesting area of North Seymour Bluefooted Boobies and Magnificent Frigatebirds is the same.</p>

Santa Cruz Island: Highlands, Rancho Primicias & Charles Darwin Station

<p>Breakfast service.&nbsp;Dry landing.&nbsp;Visit Moreno Point*.&nbsp;Deep-water snorkeling.</p>

<h2>Moreno Point</h2>

<p>Moreno Point is where the forces from the Galapagos joined together to create an art work.&nbsp;You will begin the tour with a paddle boat ride along the stunning rocky shores, where you can often see Galapagos Penguins as well as shorebirds.&nbsp;The path then traverses through jagged lava rock.&nbsp;Crystal tide pools were formed as the black lava flow swirled, some surrounded by mangroves.&nbsp;This area is home to small blue lagoons and blue herons as well as pintail ducks from the Bahamas.&nbsp;The mangroves&#39; green leaves are home to brown pelicans, which can be found nesting within the mangroves.&nbsp;These pools can be viewed from the edge of the volcano. You can also walk along the edge to see puffer fish, white-tipped sharks and green sea turtles.&nbsp;Introduced species have made this idyllic setting less beautiful.&nbsp;The area is home to feral dogs that are known for attacking sea lions, marine iguanas and other animals.</p>

<h2>Urbina Bay</h2>

<p>Lunch service and navigation to Urbina Bay&nbsp;Wet landing.&nbsp;More wildlife watching and nature walks&nbsp;Scuba diving.</p>

<p>Urbina Bay is located at the foot Alcedo Volcano south of Tagus Cove. It is one of the most impressive and recent examples of geological uplift within the Galapagos.&nbsp;When the molten material beneath the surface shifts, it causes an uplift.&nbsp;The shoreline was lifted by almost 15 feet (4 meters) in 1954.&nbsp;The coast was extended 3/4 mile out to sea, leaving behind giant coral heads and stranding large marine organisms.&nbsp;Shortly after, a Disney film crew visited the location and found skeletons of sea turtles, sharks and lobsters that were unable to locate the ocean due to the rapidly rising land.&nbsp;Newly formed tide pools were home to schools of fish.&nbsp;Near the former beach, you can see boulder-sized coral heads.&nbsp;A few weeks later, Alcedo&#39;s eruption followed the uplifting of Urbina bay.</p>

<p>Many Galapagos animals nest in Urbina Bay during the season.&nbsp;To lay their eggs, female tortoises travel down from Alcedo.&nbsp;The area is also home to Galapagos penguins and flightless cormorants, as well as brown pelicans.</p>

<p>The journey begins with a wet landing at the white sand beaches.&nbsp;The difficulty of the route will vary depending on the season.&nbsp;The trail is quite passable in the dry season, but can be very difficult during the wet season.&nbsp;The visitors will learn about the geological wonders of this region as they cross it.&nbsp;You will then reach the area of sandy beach.&nbsp;You can return to the landing spot on shorter visits by following the same route, while you can continue on to the new beach and coral heads with longer visits.</p>

<p>The site also features marine iguanas as well as some of the largest land-iguanas on the islands. Galapagos Cotton is an endemic plant that historians believe the Incas brought with them to the islands. Naturalists however think it may have floated from Peru.</p>

Isabela Island: Moreno Point & Urbina Bay

<p>Breakfast service.&nbsp;Dry landing.&nbsp;Nature walk.&nbsp;Panga boat ride.&nbsp;Deep-water snorkeling.</p>

<h2>Isabela Island: Tagus Cove</h2>

<p>Tagus cove (Isabela Island), is located east of Fernandina Island, on the west coast Isabela Island.&nbsp;This cove is protected by two volcanic craters. It has been used as an anchorage since over 300 years.&nbsp;The nature trail takes you through the typical dry vegetation zone to Darwin Lake. It is a saltwater lake with a long narrow inlet.&nbsp;The trail ends at the top, where you can see the various vegetation zones and the Darwin and Wolf volcanoes. You can also observe Galapagos Penguins and Flightless Cormorants.</p>

<h2>Fernandina Island: Espinoza Point</h2>

<p>Lunch service and navigation to Espinoza Point, Fernandina Island*</p>

<p>Wet landing.&nbsp;Nature walks.&nbsp;Deep-water snorkeling</p>

<p>Fernandina Island, the youngest and most active volcano of the Galapagos Islands, is active every few years.&nbsp;Punta Espinosa&#39;s flat lava is a barren and stark landscape. But here, flightless cormorants nest on the point, sea-lions play in the tidepools, and large numbers marine iguanas adorn the sand.&nbsp;Here, we will also have the chance to compare the Aa lava types with the Pahoehoe.</p>

<p>Guide briefing.&nbsp;Navigation to Santiago Island and dinner service</p>


Isabela Island: Tagus Cove & Fernandina Island: Espinoza Point

<p>Breakfast service.&nbsp;Wet landing.&nbsp;Visit Puerto Egas for a nature walk, salt mines, and fur seal grotto.&nbsp;Scuba diving.</p>

<h2>Puerto Egas</h2>

<p>The first step in a visit to Puerto Egas is to land on the dark sand beaches at James Bay.&nbsp;Walking along the rocky coastline offers the chance to see some of the best tide pools on Galapagos Island.&nbsp;You can see slugs, snails, hermits crabs, barnacles, fish, and even the rare four-eyed blenny.&nbsp;You will also find a variety shore birds, sea lions, marine iguanas and sally lightfoot crabs on the walk.</p>

<p>Two interesting excursions can be made from Puerto Egas.&nbsp;The first takes you to the location of one of the first entrepreneurs in the Galapagos. It is just a short walk away from the landing area.&nbsp;Salt was mined from the local salt crater for decades.&nbsp;In 1950, the industry was shut down leaving behind many rusted parts and old machines.&nbsp;From the crater cone, the trail follows the same path as wagon trains.&nbsp;Although the trail is not difficult, it can be one of the most intense hikes on the island.&nbsp;The trail is lined by arid vegetation that is cut by feral goats.&nbsp;The goats eat every leaf that is within their reach, leaving little for the endangered island animals.&nbsp;Bird lovers will delight in the chance to see a Darwin&#39;s finch or the endemic Galapagos Hawk, as well as the colorful vermillion flycatcher.</p>

<p>The view from the crater&#39;s rim is breathtaking.&nbsp;This extinct volcano, whose floor is now below sea level, can be seen from the crater&#39;s rim.&nbsp;The crater is flooded with salt water, creating a small lake.&nbsp;Many have failed to extract the salt from the sun.</p>

<p>The older orange lava fields that support vegetation, including Palo Santo trees, can be seen looking away from the crater.</p>

<p>The fur seal grotto is the next stop on the second excursion. It starts just beyond the tide pools.&nbsp;The lava-rocked pools are home to fur seals and sea lions.&nbsp;Visitors may have the chance to swim and see fur seals here.</p>

<p>Fur seals were once nearly extinct due to their fur coats.&nbsp;The Galapagos Fur Seal, which is the smallest fur seal in the southern hemisphere now ranks alongside the sea lions, is smaller than the others.&nbsp;They hide in caves or shelves built from rocky lava rock cliffs during the day to protect themselves from the scorching equatorial sunlight.&nbsp;They eat squid, fish and avoid sharks at night.</p>

<p>This is a beautiful place to snorkel and swim in the clear waters.</p>

<h2>Espumilla Beach</h2>

<p>Most people who visit Espumilla Beach now do so to see birds, not water.&nbsp;You can walk just a few steps inland through mangrove forests that are home to the common stilt.&nbsp;These mangroves are also home to sea turtles who nest in them.&nbsp;There is also a brackish lagoon that houses pink flamingos as well as white-cheeked pintails.&nbsp;You will follow the trail for a loop, passing a small knob and then returning to the beach.&nbsp;If you are observant, you may see a variety Darwin finches and vermilion fly catchers along the trail.&nbsp;If time permits, visitors can swim or snorkel at the beach.</p>

<h2>Buccaneer Cove</h2>

<p>Lunch service.&nbsp;Panga boat ride to Buccaneer&#39;s Cove.&nbsp;Deep watersnorkeling</p>

<p>Buccaneers Cove was located less than an hour from Puerto Egas and served as a safe haven to pirates, sailors, and whalers in the 18th and 19th centuries.&nbsp;They were able make repairs to their ships by anchoring in the bay, while others went ashore to get fresh water, salt, and firewood.&nbsp;Ceramic jars, once considered the cargo of a mariner many years ago, were discovered at the bottom the bay.&nbsp;The jars contained wine and marmalade.</p>

<p>Today, there are very few boats that stop at Buccaneers Cove.&nbsp;Many boats cruise by at a slower speed, allowing visitors to see the steep cliffs of tuff formations as well as the reddish-purple sand beaches.&nbsp;The dramatic scenery is enhanced by hundreds of seabirds perched on top of the cliffs.&nbsp;The &quot;monk rock&quot; and the &quot;elephant rocks are two of the most well-known rock formations.&nbsp;Buccaneers Cove is home to a large number of feral goats.&nbsp;To protect native vegetation from being destroyed by this introduced species, the National Park Service has temporarily fenced off a portion of the area.&nbsp;Just north of the valuable fresh water supply, which once attracted whalers and pirates, is a wet landing.</p>

Santiago Island: Puerto Egas, Salt Mines, Espumilla Beach & Buccaneer Cove

<p>Breakfast service.&nbsp;Dry landing.&nbsp;Rabida Island Nature Walk&nbsp;Deep-water snorkeling</p>

<h2>Rabida Island</h2>

<p>Rabida Island&#39;s unique feature is its extraordinary red color. This is due to the high level of oxidized iron found in the lava.&nbsp;We will see nine types of finches here, along with large-billed flycatchers (large-billed flycatchers) and brown pelicans.&nbsp;A small salt-water lagoon is available where you can see greater Flamingos and a colony of sealions.</p>

<h2>Santiago Island: Sullivan Bay</h2>

<p>Lunch service.&nbsp;Panga boat ride.&nbsp;Dry landing.&nbsp;Nature walk in Sullivan Bay.&nbsp;Scuba diving.</p>
