Our Western Galapagos Yacht Itinerary opens up with a tour of North Seymour Island, one of the most spectacular places in the archipelago with birds and unique scenery. The next day, we’ll wake up to the youngest and largest islands in Galapagos — Isabela and Fernandina — and embark on a spectacular tour of their geology, native wildlife, and human history.
After that, we’ll visit Rabida Island and Dragon Hill, each with its unique set of nature and beaches. Next, Santa Cruz awaits to provide us with insights into the conservation efforts underway while marveling at giant tortoises! Lastly, Floreana Island is our final visit, taking our breath away with its gorgeous scenery and amusing human history.
This Galapagos itinerary has been designed to guarantee the best wildlife-viewing opportunities at several of the most gorgeous landscapes in the archipelago.
A total of 20 spacious and spotless cabins (all of which have their private bathroom) offer room for up to 40 guests. A wide variety of cabin options are available, and nearly all of them are arrayed around the outer-facing corridors of the Yacht.
Visited on day one.
Rounding out this Galapagos itinerary is captivating North Seymour, with its fair share of frigatebirds, blue-footed boobies, and swallow-tailed gulls. As we make our way through the sprawling Palo Santo tree forest, we’ll make it to the other side of the island, where sea lions, marine iguanas, and beautiful sunsets are quite common.
Visited on day two.
Admire the epic and beautiful coastline of one of the largest islands in the Galapagos. In addition to the dramatic geology found here, you’ll also enjoy the chance to hop aboard our glass-bottom boat or go snorkeling in the presence of green sea turtles, playful sea lions, ocean sunfish, and even penguins, possibly!
Visited on day two.
Fascinate yourself with the mesmerizing canvas of recent lava flows that have amassed across the terrain. Home to one of the largest colonies of marine iguanas, you’ll want to watch your step, too! Snorkeling is offered here, with the possibility of seeing and even swimming alongside flightless cormorants and penguins.
Visited on day four.
Rabida never fails to stun the eyes with its mesmerizing crimson-red beach and towering hillsides. Here you’ll get to enjoy a tour across its spectacular terrain and the nearby saltwater lagoon, allowing you to see flamingos, sea lions, and marine iguanas. The opportunity to go snorkeling here is available, too.
Visited on days four and five.
Home of the Charles Darwin Research Station and one of the largest giant tortoise populations in the archipelago. This island provides an exquisite sense of the ongoing conservation efforts underway, and the care native islanders take in protecting the wildlife and the environment. Giant tortoises are also seen in their natural habitat in the lush and verdant highlands.
Visited on day six.
On this island, immerse yourself in the human history of the Galapagos by partaking in the unique act of sending mail through a barrel that’s been functioning as a post office for over two centuries!
