KICKER ROCK
Lying just 3 km off the north coast of San Cristobal, this spectacular 100 m-high volcanic plug is worth visiting just for the visula impact. Boats can sail between the two sheer cliff faces, and the site is one of the best for snorkelling in Galápagos, especially if you are keen to see sharks and rays. It is about 45 minutes by boat from Puerto Baquerizo.
