Historically, Tagus Cove was well known by pirates, buccaneers, and whalers who frequented this part of the archipelago to restock their supplies. Tagus Cove offers many activities from both land and sea. Kayak along the protected coastline and search for Galápagos penguins swimming in the water, flightless cormorants drying their wings, or even blue-footed boobies diving into the water in search of food. Perhaps you will want to slip your fins and mask on and go snorkeling. For the more adventurous, take a hike with spectacular views of a lake set against the backdrop of the sheltered bay. And finally, marvel at the vast and sweeping landscape as you make your way up to the top of the trail.
