Darwin Bay gives Genovesa a shore-level counterpart to its cliff-top walk. The beach, mangroves and tidal pools bring different seabird habitats together within a compact visitor route. Arrange the wet landing through the authorized vessel itinerary, allowing time to observe rather than expecting to cover the wider island.
