Floreana Island: A quiet bit

There is a quiet bit of coast between Punta Cormorant and Post Office Bay which should have a name: it might be Baroness Bay. It is sheltered by small islands, rocks and sand bars and is populated by friendly and photographable wildlife. If I had to be abandoned in the Galapagos somewhere, this place would be my second choice. (The Finch Bay Hotel in Puerto Ayora would be my first.) And I could count on being rescued by tourists before long.
