Birding On Foot – Interpretive Center & Walk To Punta Carola

This is a very easy birding walk to do if you are staying on San Cristobal preferably in the morning before it gets too hot. Get a taxi to drop you at the Interpretive Center and have a look at the exhibits.

Keep your eye out for birds as you walk along the footpaths.DSCN0905 DSCN0907 DSCN0908

There are a couple rest stops between the Interpretive Center and Punta Carola Beach.DSCN0910 DSCN0911

Look down for iguanas and up for birds!  These trails are good for Darwin’s finches.

When you are ready to go back to the town, follow the narrow trail along the sea and you will end up at the far end of town where you can keep walking or get a taxi if it’s too hot.IMG_2510 DSCN0917 DSCN0919 DSCN0920 DSCN0921 DSCN0922
