Galapagos Information - Columbus Travel Isabela Island
Vicente Roca Point

Here the remnants of an ancient volcano form two turquoise coves with a bay well protected from the ocean swells. The spot is a popular anchorage from which to explore the cliffs, where masked and blue-footed boobies perch while flightless cormorants inhabit the shoreline. The upwelling of coldwater currents in this part of the Gal�pagos give rise to an abundance of marine life, which make Punta Vicente Roca one of the archipelago�s sought after dive spots.
