Genovesa Nazca Booby

Genovevesa is known more often by its English name of Tower. It covers 14 sq km and is the northeastern most of the Galapagos Islands. As it is an outlying island,
Tower is infrequently included on a one-week itinerary. If you have the time, however, and are interested in seabirds, this island is well worth the long trip. It is the best place to see a red-footed booby colony, and it provides visitors with the opportunity to visit colonies of great frigatebirds, red-billed tropicbirds. swallow-tailed gulls, masked boobies and many thou-sands of storm petrels.
Best nesting colonies for observing Nazca Boobies (formerly known as masked boobies) Genovesa (Tower), Hood (Española), and Floreana Galapagos Islands. Best time of the year to observe them: anytime of the year.
