About Santa Cruz - Academy Bay

O local de mergulho mais próximo de Puerto Ayora e um favorito para os entusiastas do mergulho noturno. Após o anoitecer, tubarões-de-pontas-brancas-de-recife emergem para caçar, o plâncton bioluminescente brilha a cada movimento, e lagostas-sapateiras rastejam pelas rochas vulcânicas. Durante o dia, a baía abrigada oferece mergulhos relaxantes com leões marinhos, tartarugas-verdes e cardumes de peixes de recife coloridos.
