If you thought I was done sharing images of stunning Galapagos beaches, you are wrong.

Here’s one more post to whet your salivary glands.

Las Bachas is on the north shore of Santa Cruz. It’s got a white sand beach that is also a nesting site for the Pacific Green Sea Turtle.

Our tour guide picks up sea urchin remnants that have washed ashore along the decomposed coral (the black rocks that line the beach).

This stretch of shoreline used to have a barge during World War II when the United States used Baltra as a military base.

Crabs! I can’t get enough of these colorful little dudes.

These are Sally Lightfoot Crabs, also known as Grapsus grapsus.

I’m awkwardly dressed in what I affectionately dub my “travel clothes.” This is my uniform for the whole trip, rotating different color shirts and one other pair of convertible pants. What can I say, I’m fashion savvy. #sarcasm

In the photo below you can see an area dug by sea turtles. This is where they nest in the sand at night and protect their eggs from predators like Great Blue Heron.

Hello Mr. Iguana.

Once we’re back on board, we watch the sun set over Las Bachas.

I spy a stowaway on the panga…

Don’t worry, he safely jumps out before our yacht takes off.

Mark down one more pretty sunset for the record books. My new shipmates are mighty impressed.

And it’s time for my second “welcome party” of the week! I enjoy another one of Jimmy’s fruity concoctions as the new group toasts.

Bon voyage for part two of my Galapagos experience!
