Yesterday we chartered a boat, the Sirena de la Noche, and took a three hour trip to Isla de San Jorge for snorkeling, scuba diving, and to see some sea lions living there. The sea lions were constantly barking as if they were speaking to each other.

The waters where we were snorkeling were quite murky, and it wasn't very deep either (about 20 feet). we saw a few small schools of fish and a few fish that were on their own. There were a few sea lion pups swimming around us, and playing with each other like energetic kids.

The mountains of the island were white thanks to the bird guano (hence the English name bird island). The island had many birds on it that mainly consisted of seagulls and herons.

Afterwards, we had some great American style pizza at a place called Al Capone's. There were several wandering guitarists playing songs on request.
