Tips

Kicker Rock or Spanish name ¨Leon dormido¨ (sleeping lion) is a large volcanic rock formation that has a height of 150m (500 ft). It is a very popular destination for diving and snorkelling. A natural channel between the rocks attracts various marine life such as hammerhead sharks, eagle rays, golden rays, sea turtles etc. Out of the water, you may see blue-footed boobies, masked boobies and frigate birds resting on the cliffs and sea lions playing on the shore. This tour combines snorkelling at Kicker Rock and a visit to a beach, which may be Puerto Grande, Cerro Brujo or Manglecito, depending on the season and sea conditions. Lunch will be served on board, and the tour ends in the afternoon, around 3 pm in Puerto Moreno Baquerizo.
