One of San Cristobal Island's most popular visitor sites is Cerro Brujo, with its expansive white sand beach and a lagoon that locals once used as a salt mine but now offers excellent snorkeling opportunities. Another must-see is Kicker Rock, a fascinating rock formation that looks like a boot from one angle (hence its English name) and like a sleeping lion from another (thus its Spanish name, Roca León Dormido).

The Ionian Sea, a stretch of the Mediterranean nestled between Italy and Greece, offers a captivating blend of azure waters, picturesque islands, and rich history. The sea is framed by Italy's western coast and Greece's western islands, including Corfu, Kefalonia, and Zakynthos. These islands provide a gateway to some of the most stunning landscapes in the region, from the rugged cliffs of Zakynthos to the lush greenery of Kefalonia.

On South Plaza Island, sea lions breed all along the low lying northern coast. These sheer cliffs are home for swallow-tail gulls and the beautiful red billed tropic birds. The landscape is dominated by optunia cactus trees. A look under each tree reveals a land iguana patiently waiting for a succulent cactus pad to fall.
