Gardener Bay, Galapagos

On the southeastern coast of Espanola Island, one of the most perfect beaches on the archipelago can be found.

Gardener Bay is a gorgeous curve of white sand, caressed by the gentle blue waves of the Pacific.  This is the perfect place to relax after climbing mountains and trekking through forests to find the Galapagos wildlife. 

However, be warned, even here the wild is never too far away, and you can expect to be joined on your swim by a member of the large local sea lion colony.
