Know before you book
- Public transport options are available nearby
- Suitable for all physical fitness levels
- Itineraries for tours and cruises in the Galapagos Islands can indeed change according to regulations set by the Galapagos National Park.
- The Galapagos National Park Directorate enforces strict guidelines to protect the unique ecosystems and wildlife of the islands. These regulations can affect visitor sites, allowable activities, and the number of visitors to certain areas
- Wildlife Protection: Certain areas might be temporarily closed to allow for the undisturbed breeding or nesting of wildlife
- Environmental Conservation: Some sites might be restricted to limit human impact and allow for ecological recovery
- Safety: Weather conditions, volcanic activity, or other natural events can make certain areas unsafe, leading to itinerary changes
- Management Policies: The park authority might change policies on the maximum number of visitors per site to reduce overcrowding and minimise environmental impact
- Our travel experts typically adapt their plans to comply with these regulations while still providing a rich experience of the Galapagos Islands. It's always a good idea to check with your tour provider for the most up-to-date information regarding your itinerary
- We don't offer trip insurance, but we highly recommend purchasing it before your trip.
- You have to fly to Ecuador first, either to Quito or Guayaquil, and from there you will fly to Galapagos..
- Galapagos Dry Season (cool & misty) From July to December (approximately), the southern trade winds bring the cold Humboldt Current to Galapagos and with it, cooler days, cooler water temperatures and blue skies. The highlands of the larger islands have a persistent misty fog known as Garua that keeps them lush and green, while shorelines and islands closer to sea level have little precipitation or a few midday showers. During this season, tourists may observe a rich variety of species around the islands and in the sea such as giant tortoises, humpback whales, blue-footed boobies, cormorants, oystercatchers, lava lizards, Galapagos hawks, masked boobies, swallow-tailed gulls, sea lions, lava herons, brown noddies, and penguins. While water visibility may be decreased, the currents and winds bring tonnes of ocean life, making it the perfect time for diving.
- Galapagos Wet Season (warm & rainy) The time period between December and June (approximately), is known as the wet or warm season in Galapagos. During this season, the climate in the Islands is more “tropical” with daily rain and cloudier skies. The northern Panama Current heats the water temperature and this causes hot days with periodic rains that often clear up by the evening. Ocean conditions are calmer during the wet season resulting in excellent underwater visibility and with a warmer water temperature, swimming and snorkelling can be more enjoyable. During this wet/rainy season, lush green leaves and landscapes provide an abundance of food for many land animals. Tourists may observe a large number of species around the islands such as marine iguanas, sea turtles, land iguanas, flamingos, white-cheeked pintails, masked boobies, albatross, and blue-footed boobies.
- Galapagos Weather for Divers The Humboldt Current's influence brings cold waters especially during the misty, cool season (cool & dry weather) from July to December approximately. Natural Ocean occurrences like the Panama Current and "El Niño", bring warm waters to the Galapagos and will make the surface warmer and rainfall increase (December to June approximately). The water temperature varies during the year. December to June: from 70°F (21°C) to 80°F (27°C) July to November: from 65°F (18°C) to 75°F (23°C)
