All passengers must arrive at the agency at 7:00 in the morning, where we will prepare all snorkeling equipment, which includes a short wetsuit, fins, mask, and a snorkel.
At 7:30 am, we’ll head to Muelle Acuario I y Zarpe, where you’ll meet your naturalist guide and board the boat.
We will navigate to Kicker rock islet, where you can see the majestic rock of volcanic lava. Once we arrive, the naturalist guide will give you the briefing about the snorkeling areas and the route we will take. We will snorkel in the channel between the two rocks. The naturalist guide may suggest another rock site depending on ocean conditions. The snorkel lasts approximately 45 minutes. At the end of the snorkel, passengers will have time to rest and have some snacks and drinks before Punta Pitt.
