Mosquera Islet
Make a compact guided shore visit for sea-lion behavior and coastal birds on a low islet. Limited space calls for patient wildlife distance; nearby North Seymour is a separate excursion.

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.
