Rabida

The red color of the sand, its surroundings and the mixture of orange and gold hues shining in the sunlight make this a very mysterious island. The landing is wet and you can spot brown pelicans nestling here among the mangrove vegetation, flamingos and long-tailed, white checked pintail ducks play around in the lagoon. Other animals that can be seen are Galapagos hawks, Galapagos doves and mockingbirds. Swimming and snorkeling is recommendable near the beach. Under water there is a chance to spot the pelican fish. Approximate 1-hour visit.
