When
visiting the islands, passengers are accompanied by guides following
well-defined paths. Groups do not exceed 16 passengers per guide
( this number will be lower depending on the season and size of
craft ) and group landings are staggered for visitors to gain maximum
benefit and ensure the wildlife is not disturbed. Adjustments in
the itineraries may be made due to changes in the National Park
policies, weather conditions or season. Prices do not include the
National Park entrance fee of $100. Wildlife
