This luxury cruise on a modern yacht will sail to the most beautiful highlights of the Galapagos archipelago such as Santa Cruz, Santiago Island and Genovesa Island. While you relax in the comfort of your cabin with panoramic windows and a private balcony the outstanding Galapagos landscape will pass you by and as we make stops you can experience the true reason to visit Galapagos - the unique wildlife.

On the shore you can encounter Red Footed Boobies and other marine birds, iguanas and many more, and while snorkelling, kayaking or taking the ship's dinghy out in the clear waters you can happen upon sea lions, sea turtles, reef sharks, marine iguanas and rays. As your Galapagos cruise takes you from island to island you will have the chance to stretch your legs and explore the rugged landscape of igneous stone and ancient lava. Or simply relax on the beautiful white sand beaches.

Arrival on Baltra Island and transfer to the boat.

Black Turtle Cove
Visit Black Turtle Cove in the northern part of Santa Cruz. This inlet is surrounded by mangroves and is only accessible by dinghy. The shallow cove is a haven for young marine life. Black-tip and white-tip reef sharks, sea turtles, and a variety of rays are often spotted here.

Day 2
Genovesa Island

El Barranco
El Barranco, also known as Prince Phillip’s Steps, is a steep, rocky path that leads up a high cliff rock face. A marvelous view can be appreciated from here. This site is also home to Palo Santo vegetation as well as red-footed boobies, short-eared owls, Galapagos storm petrels, and Galapagos doves.

Darwin Bay
Visit the white-sand coral beach of Darwin Bay which includes a half mile trail (0,75km) that winds through mangroves filled with land birds. Nazca boobies, red-footed boobies, and swallow-tailed gulls, which can easily be spotted here. Further down the path we’ll find tidal pools where sea lions swim playfully. At the end is a spectacular view of a cliff.

Day 3
Santiago Island Rabida Island

Sullivan Bay
You will visit Sullivan Bay located on the southeast part of Santiago. This place is interesting for its geology because the area is covered by lava flows. This place has elevations in the form of small volcanoes formed by the lava flows.

Rabida
You will visit Rabida Island (or Jervis) which is one of the most colorful and volcanically varied islands in the archipelago as well as a great snorkeling site. We will start on Rabida’s famous maroon/red sand beach, and after an easy hike, you will arrive to a stunning lookout to enjoy the amazing landscapes. The island is a birdwatcher’s delight. Some species are abundant such as a few varieties of finches, Galapagos vermilion flycatchers, Galapagos hawks and brown pelicans.

Day 4
Santa Cruz Island Baltra Island Departure

Fausto Llerena Breeding Center
ou will visit “Fausto Llerena” Tortoise Breeding Center in Puerto Ayora, where giant tortoises are bred in captivity. This is home to tortoises ranging from 3-inches (new hatchlings) to 4-feet long adults. Subspecies of the giant tortoises interact with one another, and many of the older tortoises are accustomed to humans stretching out their heads for a photo opportunity. The babies are kept until they are about four years-old and strong enough to survive on their own.

After this final visit, you will be transferred to the Baltra airport in time for your flight back to the mainland.
