North Seymour Island

Reviewed By 555tanaw - Kennewick, United States

This was the first stop on our Galapagos trip and it was great! Lots of blue footed boobies with their chicks, frigate birds, sea lions galore as well as a ton of iguanas. Well worth the visit!

Punta Suarez

Reviewed By 740mareer - Christchurch, New Zealand

This island is packed with wildlife. Marine iguanas were all over the rocks near the beach, we saw so many birds including the waved albatross, galapagos hawk and all three boobies. The walk was over uneven ground at times so good footwear is essential and bring insect repellent, We didnt and were eaten alive, a week before there were no biters so noone was prepared, it made stopping very unpleasant.

Beautiful island with flamingos in brackish ponds, incredible red sand beaches and gorgeous views of Darwin Lake. Remnants of old volcanoes are evident in this centrally located (amongst all the islands).

Santiago Island

Reviewed By HarryR140 - Ramat Hasharon, Israel

We had two stops on the Western coast of Santiago Island: Buccaneer's cove and Puerto Egas. The former provides great snorkelling amidst the rocks and caves that used to serve as pirate home. The latter hosted an ill-fated attempt to create a salt mining business. Now it is home yellow land iguanas, impressive in their ugliness.

Isabela Island

Reviewed By pfefmeister - San Francisco, United States

Our yacht - Anahi - went around this lovely island from Puerto Ayora, up the west side, around the top, and back. Just an over the top varied selection of wildlife, with great hiking and snorkeling options along the way. Once you leave Puerto Viliamil, you leave civilization, with zero cell service until you return to Baltra. The further up the west coast of Isabella you go, the less ships you encounter, since it becomes too far to go for the day trippers. Make sure the boat you choose does the western route. The ride was also less choppy than trying to get to the further islands across the open ocean.

Isla de la Plata

Located only 17 miles off the coast of Ecuador, this island is encircled by many reefs that make it a popular destination for scuba divers and snorkelers.

Reviewed By Venture61583270789

It is a really nice day trip where you get very close to the birds. Go for the "long" hike. It is quite easy and takes only 1,5 hours. Price har rissen to 40$ most places. They start at 45 and then lower it to 40 everywhere.
