Take the Plunge
Diving tours are one of the most popular and sought after activities in the Galapagos Islands. With the marine life and natural beauty being ranked as one of the seven underwater wonders of the world it’s no surprise divers are blowing bubbles to explore this underwater wonderland. The marine life is sure to throw surprises at diving enthusiasts with whale sharks, schools of Hammerhead sharks, penguins, tortoises, fish and the iconic Galapagos lizard – one of the only swimming lizards in the world.
If diving deep isn’t for you, there is much to be seen whilst snorkelling with lion seals, turtles and schools of rainbow coloured fish. Alternatively, take a boat cruise to get a good look at the islands and the beauty they have to offer whilst relaxing with a cocktail on a luxurious yacht.
Volcano trekking
Take the ultimate hiking adventure and experience the glorious Galapagos Islands landscape firsthand. The hiking tour takes you along a breathtaking journey walking along the rim of the Sierra Negra which is the world’s largest volcano caldera. The trek concludes with a relaxing stroll on the white sand beaches while giant tortoises amble past. A guide is available to take novice trekkers through the Galapagos landscape while explaining the history and natural wonders of the islands.
A Cure for the Curious
Cave exploring is one thing you don’t want to miss out on when visiting the Galapagos Islands. The small town of Bellavista in the north of Santa Cruz Island is the perfect spot to kick off the cave exploring adventure. With a labyrinth of caves and lava tubes its is the perfect environment to unleash the inner explorer with a trained guide. In the Southern Islands of the Galapagos Archipelago you can explore the pirate caves which are rumoured to have housed the islands earliest inhabitants. Rumour has it that the island caves also housed pirates during the Long John Silver era – ahoy Galapagos!
