Tower is a collapsed volcano and ships sail
directly into its large breached caldera to anchor at the foot of
the steep crater walls. Tower attracts vast numbers of pelagic
seabirds that come here to nest and breed: great frigate birds,
red-footed boobies, swallow-tailed gulls and storm petrels. A trail
leads from a coral beach past tidal lagoons where lava gulls and
yellow-crowned night herons are seen, then along the low shrubs
populated by frigates and boobies, and eventually to a cliff edge
where seabirds soar. |
