Ep 38 - Heartbreak in Galapagos | Santa Rosa Turtle Sanctuary | Diving in Santa Cruz

After days of exploring, snorkelling, diving, enjoying new friends, and partying all night in Galapagos, we face a big heartbreak on board Stardate.
We explore a turtle sanctuary and some caves in Santa Rosa, getting very dirty as we reach record speeds on bikes down muddy paths. We swim into the wonderous waters of Las Grietas: The Cracks.
Then we spend a day diving off the coast of Santa Cruz, reaching new depths with many new creatures. But that’s not without more boat maintenance that poses serious problems if left unfixed.
After an adventurous day, we hit the town to celebrate Phil’s last day. We spend the night partying it up and making new friends. Except for the enemy we made with a seal while trying to return home.
After lots of fun, we shed some tears as we said goodbye to one of the OG Stardate crew members, Phil. After being on the boat for 1 year, as Matt’s first mate but also his brother, Phil leaves and the crew depletes to 3.
Come follow along on the epic next leg of the adventure!

@danafourie3440 thank you that's nice to read. One of the joys of making these videos is in re-living the cut footage that I forgot about and this one definitely took back and brought the emotions all back.
Thanks so much for tuning in
