Itinerary A 5 Days

Arrival at San Cristobal Airport, our National Park Naturalist Guide will meet you.

Lobos Island

Lobos Island is a tiny islet that is separated from San Cristobal, by a narrow canal. It forms a bay protected where young sea lions can play in tide pools. The island, despite its size, is packed full of wildlife. As you approach the island, you will see groups of sea lions. However, as you move inland you will find male frigatebirds perched in the trees and bushes, displaying their red inflated balloons. You can also see the famous blue-footed boobies courtship dance. They often nest on the path.

Gardner Bay

Gardner Beach is one of the best beaches in Galapagos. The fine coral sand, turquoise waters and sea lions basking on the beach give the area a tropical look. The beach is a great place to learn more about sea lions, other species like the Espanola mockingbird and marine iguanas, as well as Galapagos Hawks.

Suarez Point

The Galapagos Islands are home to some of the best nature trails in the world.

The amount of wildlife and the diversity is amazing. The first to greet us will be sea lions and marine Iguanas. They are followed by large flocks of seabirds such as Nazca, Blue-footed and Nazca boobies. We will also visit the colony of waved Albatross, the biggest bird on the island and the one that is most fascinating because of their powerful flight and intricate courtship. The only place you can see the waved albatross up close is at Espanola.
