World bird authority, and owner of Alvaro’s Adventures, Alvaro Jaramillo will lead SCVAS members on a spectacular oceanic voyage to Southeast Farallon Island, 27 miles off the coast of San Francisico and home of thousands of nesting seabirds including Common Murre, Tufted Puffin, Rhinoceros Auklet, and Cassin’s Auklet. Thousands of marine mammals may be seen on this voyage as well, including Northern Fur Seal and a variety of Whales. Alvaro Jaramillo, along with a crew of spotters including SCVAS Executive Director, Matthew Dodder will share stories of the islands environmental importance, its historical curiosities and the many animals that call these forbidding rocky islands their home. After circling the island and if weather permits, the boat will venture off the continental shelf and into deeper waters in search of Black-footed Albatross and other marine wonders. It is a summer trip you should not miss!

NOTE: Alvaro and his crew have been approved for chartered voyages for the season and will maintain social distance to prevent the spread of COVID-19 on deck by admitting only 15 passengers on this very special trip. Specifics regarding face masks (if required) will be addressed closer to the date of departure.
