It is a natural reserve of beautiful geological formations, impressive fauna where you will find sea lions, penguins and birds such as the pelican, among other species found in the archipelago. Due to the number of birds that lives in the area, and with the migratory ones, these islands have the best natural fertilizer in the world: the guano.
