Our Destination Expert's describe their favorite places and ways to visit the Galapagos Islands from their personal travel experience.

Galapagos Wildlife Wonderland

The Galapagos Islands are a wildlife wonderland, home to a unique array of animal species that are found nowhere else on Earth. Marvel at giant tortoises, blue-footed boobies, sea lions, and marine iguanas in their natural habitats. The islands are a living laboratory for evolution, with ongoing research and conservation efforts aimed at preserving this fragile ecosystem.

Snorkeling & Diving the Galapagos

Snorkeling and diving in the Galapagos is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that allows visitors to discover the unique marine life of these remote islands. With crystal-clear waters and an abundance of species, the Galapagos Islands offer a rare opportunity to swim with sea turtles, hammerhead sharks, manta rays, and colorful tropical fish in one of the largest marine protected areas in the world.

Pristine Galapagos Beaches

The Galapagos Islands are known for their pristine and secluded beaches. Some beaches, like Tortuga Bay and Gardner Bay, are home to sea turtles, sea lions, and marine iguanas, making for a unique and unforgettable beach experience. The beaches of the Galapagos are also important nesting sites for various species of sea turtles, adding to the islands' ecological importance and natural beauty.
