Sea Lions of Los Islotes
The Jewel of Espiritu Santo Island
by Luke Inman
Visitors cannot help but be enchanted by the sea lions
of Los Islotes. They emanate finesse and charm
without a hint of illusion or wizardry. There is no
incantation or voodoo, just an abounding sense of
play that inspires every visitor.
When it comes to wild animal encounters, Los Islotes
is almost nirvana. Few places so close to a city can
truly offer such a convenient and accessible
opportunity to interact with Mother Nature in her
untamed state. California sea lions are the main
residents, strangely thriving in a place so accessible to
tourists.
Initial introductions begin at the surface; encounters are then formalised below the water as Poseidon’s ocean
ambassadors exuberantly whiz towards and around diver and snorkeler alike.
With vivid underwater photography throughout by a uniquely positioned author, The Sea Lions of Los Islotes takes
readers straight into the world of these most charismatic marine mammals. The book contents include: A Foreword
by Steve Backshall; how to tell different sea lions apart; what their lifestyle is like; their lifecycle; how to have safe
interactions; the challenges sea lions face; other visitors to the area; and how to photograph sea lions.

‘All these glories have been made possible by Luke, his enthusiasm,
knowledge and passion for the part of the world he has made home.’
