What To Expect

This amazing landmark located about an hour and a half to the north east of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, Kicker Rock / Leon Dormido is a remnant of a vertical tuff cone formation, rising almost 153 meters (500 feet) from the ocean. The erosion has given the rock its characteristic shape, which some see as a shoe, hence the name Kicker Rock. Others see it as a sleeping sea lion or Leon Dormido in Spanish. While we snorkel around Kicker Rock we can spot sea turtles, marine iguanas, rays, Galapagos sharks, tropical fish and if luck is on our side we can even see hammerhead sharks. Besides enjoying the underwater view, we can usually see blue-footed boobies, masked boobies and frigatebirds on the cliffs as well as sea lions along the shore.

The staff was very accommodating and helpful. They were very concerned about our safety. The lunch was decent and plentiful. The tour operator included snorkeling equipment and wetsuits which many of the other agencies charge extra for. Our only complaint was the office was closed when we went back to return our equipment?. Still would recommend and be sure to pack your sunscreen.
This tour company is the WORST

We were never picked up by the tour company. After making our way to the docks with the help of hotel staff we got on the boat but the tour company did not provide any equipment!! The boat staff found fins but we had to snorkel in cold water without wetsuits. For almost $200 per person this is upsetting and a once in a lifetime opportunity was spoiled. Also, buy your tours locally. The markup on these sites is high and the money is needed locally. It was difficult getting support through Viator.
