Isla Espiritu Santo: Serenity in symphony, Espiritu Santo's serene beauty unraveled before us like a brilliantly composed piece of music. The sky and the crystal-clear water merged at the horizon, painting an endless canvas of tranquility.

We were able to see up close and without invading, the largest colony of sea lions in LATAM. It was wonderful!





Isla Pardito: The Friendly Hideaway Next, we arrived at Isla Pardito, an escape like no other. As we approached its white sandy shores, the azure expanse of the sea offered the perfect backdrop for sheer relaxation. But this beautiful island held more in its folds.
