Cerro Brujo, a magnificent white coral sand beach along the northern coast of San Cristóbal, holds historical significance as one of the first landing spots of Charles Darwin. Known as ‘Witch Hill,’ this area is teeming with wildlife, including sea lions, turtles, marine iguanas, brown pelicans, crabs, and rays. The adjacent lagoon provides a haven for coastal and migratory birds such as blue-footed boobies, egrets, and great blue herons. Visitors today can explore the pristine shoreline, observe the diverse array of animals, and immerse themselves in the natural beauty that inspired Darwin’s groundbreaking work.
