Kicker Rock
Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, Ecuador
After breakfast, you go by boat to snorkel at the famous Kicker Rock, which is composed of two volcanic rocks of 140 meters tall, located off the coast of San Cristobal Island. When it is viewed from the south, the rocks look like a sleeping lion, which is why the Spanish name is León Dormido (sleeping lion). From another side, it looks more like a boot, hence the English name: Kicker Rock. In the trip, you will see the great underwater life for which this site is famous. The channel between the rocks is the ideal habitat for a variety of sharks and rays. In the afternoon, you will go back to your hotel.

It is recommended to book flights with an early arrival time to the Galapagos Islands and a late departure time from the Galapagos Islands to make sure you can enjoy all of the activities of the tour. Late arrivals and/or early departures mean you might miss some activities.
If your flight is delayed or canceled and you cannot make it to Puerto Ayora in time to take the last speedboat to Isabela Island, which departs around 02:00 PM, we assist you with finding accommodation on Santa Cruz Island but this will be on your own expense. You will miss the planned activities.
