Cruising to a Neighboring Island:

After an early wake-up call, a boat will take you to one of the uninhabited neighboring islands: North Seymour, Bartolomé, Santa Fé, or South Plaza. Each island has its own unique natural habitat, and you will be guided through the evolutionary phenomena of your destination. The Galapagos Marine Reserve is the second largest marine rseerve in the world, and snorkelling off the boat is a highlight of the trip. Alternatively, if you are SCUBA certified, we can replace one or more day trips with diving excursions.
