    The boat tour started rather slow. Turns out the first stop is Santa Cruz which is where we have been for the last few nights.

    We saw 2 massive volcanic creators, visited a tortoise ranch and walked through some lava tunnels.
    There were 10 people on the boat and I was the second oldest ( not what we expected). Every one was very cool and I was the first to jump off the roof of the boat.

    After driving through the night we arrived at st James Bay. We walked along the rocks for a while and wow. It's just amazing! Sea lions iguanas of all sorts and manta rays in the distance. What's amazing is that all the animals aren't worried about humans. You can find yourself very very close to everything. We even saw a shark attack a sealion. We then went snorkeling and were completely blown away. Sharks, turtles, fish and sealions. There were so many turtles you couldn't help but bump into them while swimming.

    In the afternoon we had another beach walk at a different location and a snorkel at buccaneer Bay. Saw sharks and a eagle ray along with plenty of fish and sealions.
