After lunch we sailed to Cormorant Point on Floreana Island. One of the main attractions her is lagoon frequently by pink flamingos. This is one of the few places in the Galapagos were flamingos live. In this lagoon or "brackish pond", there were about 30-40 flamingos, most of the m were far away and hard to see. Later there was a couple that were much closer, including a baby flamingo, who has not yet turned pink.
We then continued walking over to the other side of the point, to a beach known as "Sting Ray City", a favorite place for large schools of stingrays. At first we saw more white-tipped sharks than stingrays, and even a few sea turtles swimming in the bay. Later we did see a bunch of sting rays, many with their wing tips out of the water. It was interesting to see sharks, turtles, and stingrays all in the same area. Our guide also showed us the green sand beach -- although in a different way than our guidebooks described: to see the green sand, he had to dig down about a foot through the white sand.
