Deluxe Galapagos Western Islands Cruise Expedition Ship Voyage

Deluxe Galapagos Western Islands Cruise Expedition Ship Voyage
This 5-day cruise aboard one of the most luxurious and well-respected ships cruising the Galapagos today is a breathtaking experience. It was a wonderful voyage that took in the most important sites in the Archipelago's central Islands as well as the Westernmost Islands. It is truly a remarkable experience to be in the Archipelago for a brief time.

Day by day

Day 1 : Baltra Airport & Mosquera Islet

Departure from Quito/Guayaquil to Baltra island (2 1/2 hours flight). Our natural guides pick up passengers at the airport and take them to the bus stop to board the M/V Galapagos Legend.

Mosquera Islet

Wet Landing, Mosquera Islet can be found between North Seymour Island and Baltra Island. The island is flat and sandy with a large colony sea lions. This is a great spot to see shorebirds like lava gulls and herons. The islet is undeveloped and visitors can freely enjoy its open space. The majority of the island is covered in sand and barren volcanic rock. The sand is not suitable for growing sesuvium por Tulacastrum plants.

Day 2 : Santiago Island: Egas Port & Rabida Island

Santiago Island: Egas Port

Wet landing. Egas Port, a volcanic sand beach of black color, was visited by Darwin in 1835. The trail's first section is made of volcanic ash, which is eroded tuff. The second half is uneven volcanic basaltic rock terrain. Santiago shore's unique and strikingly layered terrain is home to many animals, including the yellow-crowned nightheon. You can easily see colonies of endemic fur sealings in volcanic rock pools.
