Day 1: Arrive to Galapagos - Galapagos: Baltra Island & Tortuga Bay

We will take an excursion to one of the most beautiful beaches in Galapagos, Tortuga Bay, by taking a short 30 minute walk (2.5 km) west from Puerto Ayora on a marked path. As you walk along this path, the route is great for bird watching; making it easy to spot several species such as lava lizard and some of Darwin finches. The sunsets here are excellent. The “White Sand Beach” is considered by many, the nicest of the archipelago. Its name comes from the sea turtles that go there to lay their eggs.

Depending on the time of the year, other species can be found; including pelicans, flamingos and marine iguanas. Return to the Hotel. Overnight.

Day 2: Puerto Ayora - Isabela Island: Tintoreras

The guide picks you up at 6h00 and takes you to the Pier of Santa Cruz Island. At 07h00 your speed boat leaves from the main dock from Puerto Ayora, and after a 2 hours sail you reach Islabela Island.

After lunch, we will sail to “Tintoreras Islet” a large crevice with very clear, calm water in which white-tip sharks (“tintoreras”) rest daily on the bottom. We can also see penguins, sea lions, marine iguanas and snorkel with sharks and colorful tropical fishes while enjoying the beaches of Isabela.

Day 3: Isabela Island: Lava Tunnels

Today you will explore the Lava Tunnels, you will reach this spot after an approximately 30 to 40 minutes sail. At this place, the lava flow impacted with the oceans waves to form the stunning tubes and bridges of “Los Tuneles”.

This marine sanctuary is one of the most spectacular places for snorkeling in Isabela as the water is shallow, clear and calm, and its unique geologic formations.
