Itinerary

Day1.
Our Galapagos adventure begins with an aprox. 2 hours flight from Quito or Guayaquil to San Cristobal Island. After lunch in the hotel and give you a briefing on the tour, in the afternoon we will visit the San Cristobal Interpretation Center to learn about its history, present and challenges for the future. After this we will make our first snorkel at Tijeretas, where we can swim with sea lions and try to see some turtles, iguanas and with luck some sharks (L-D)

 

Day2.
After breakfast we will visit Cristobal´s Giant Tortoise breeding center. This is a great opportunity to make great pictures of the famous turtles, but also to make a short stop at El Junco Lake in the highlands of the island, see some frigate birds and enjoy the beautiful view. After lunch, we will snorkel at Lobería Beach, where there is a sea lion colony and around the shore you might see brown pelicans and other sea birds. We can also see sea iguanas and in the snorkel we have again chances to see sea turtles. ( B-L-D)

Day 3
Today we will enjoy one of Galapagos highlights: snorkel at Kicker Rock. After breakfast we will make a boat ride of aprox. 45 minutes to this natural volcanic formation and have the chance to snorkel with rays, sea turtles and hopefully hammer head sharks. It is also a great opportunity to see blue footed boobies, gulls and frigate birds. This is a full day activity, however when we come back you still have time to relax at Playa Man beach , surrounded by sea lions (B –L –D)
