Overview
Pitt Point, locally known as Punta Pitt, is located on the eastern coast of San Cristobal Island. The site is a volcanic tuff formation, famous for being a nesting spot for many species of seabirds. It is one of the few places where you can find all three species of boobies - blue-footed, red-footed and Nazca - and two species of frigate birds. There is also a sea lion colony you can admire.
