San Cristobal is the fifth largest island in the archipelago and has the second largest population. Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, the provincial capital, is on the southwest point. There is a small hospital, a post office, a poor telephone service, but all this has been improved in the last period. One hour northeast of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno is Isla Lobos. This small island is separated from the main island by a narrow stretch of rough waters. There is a trail where lava lizards are often seen. Upon its rocky shores, blue-footed boobies nest (in season), while sea lions rest and play. About two hours northeast of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, is another small rocky island called Leon Dormido or sleeping lion due to its resemblance. Leon Dormido is also called Kicker Rock. Small vessels navigate through the towering rock's split.
