The Galapagos Islands make up a total of 30 islands. The waters around them were proclaimed marine reserve and World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Paying attention to the rules of reservation and having much respect for one of the most sensitive ecosystems on the planet, there are interesting activities such as:

Bartholomew and Santa Fe Islands: Diving

The best thing here is the adrenaline produced when you get into contact with plenty of animals: Sea lions inviting you to play, turtles, sharks, schoals as you never would have imagined.

Tunnels on Isabela Island: Snorkeling

If it’s your first dive, we recommend practicing Snorkel a few days before. The ideal time is from November to May due to good ocean conditions. The Island Isabella has an undeniable beauty and its Wildlife is one of the most important National Parks in the world.

Santa Cruz Island: Puerto Ayora

This place can be a good intermediate station on the way to get prepared for diving. Here is the place where you’ll find specialized and experienced instructors and where you can get a diving license. Once this step is done … you’re ready to dive!
