Trip Summary
Choose to sail around the Galapagos for a great adventure around these fascinating islands. Travelling from one island to another highlights how different the islands are; the colour of the sand and rock, from sandy white on Santa Cruz to red on Rabida Island to black lava fields on Fernandina. This is just from looking down, looking up you will see the birdlife is fascinating, watch the Boobies plunging into the ocean and risk the dangers that lie beneath the surface to dive for fish. All life varies from each island as they evolved and are still evolving to adapt to their environment.
Almost all of the boats we use have use of kayaks and organise snorkelling trips, both are a must as life is thriving under the sea! Swim alongside playful sea lions, watch graceful Green Pacific Turtles glide by and penguins zipp passed. It makes for a very special place to snorkel, no need to dive as there is so much to see just below the surface.
