Why go

Mosquera is a small shore destination whose interest comes from its sea-lion colony and low coastal habitat. Its sand and rocks offer a different visit from North Seymour's inland loop. The limited space makes careful wildlife distance especially useful, with the landing arranged as part of an authorized boat itinerary.

What to look for

  • A low sand-and-rock islet supports sea lions
  • Shorebirds forage along the narrow beach

Useful to know

  • Visit on an authorized guided boat itinerary.
  • Treat the wet landing as a separate excursion site from neighboring North Seymour and Baltra.
