This expedition cruise provides an opportunity to discover the remarkable wildlife of the Galapagos Islands. On Genovesa, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views, thrilling dinghy rides, and up-close interactions with iconic birds like Nazca and red-footed boobies. North Seymour offers a fulfilling hike and snorkeling chance, allowing you to see the Galapagos’ most well-known species within one to two hours. In San Cristobal, explore the evolution and conservation efforts surrounding giant tortoises, snorkel in pristine waters, or unwind on sandy beaches alongside sea lions. At Santa Fe, a brief walk lets you spot Galapagos hawks, Darwin's finches, mockingbirds, and sea lions. South Plaza is distinguished by its rich and varied wildlife, providing a truly exceptional experience.

Day by day

Day 1: San Cristobal Island: Kicker Rock & Cerro Brujo

Kicker Rock

Arrive at San Cristobal Airport, where you'll receive a warm welcome and be transferred to the Galaxy II Cruise. Enjoy a welcome drink and lunch. Kicker Rock, known as Leon Dormido, features two impressive rocks rising 148 meters above sea level, resembling a lion. We'll sail between them, but disembarkation is not permitted.

Cerro Brujo

Brujo Hill is an eroded tuff cone formed from lava, notable for its low-viscosity lava that fractures as it hardens, propelled by the lava flowing from behind.

Day 2: Santa Fe Island & South Plaza Island

Santa Fe Island

Wet landing offers activities such as hiking, swimming, and snorkeling. This central island covers 24 km² and rises 60 meters above sea level. It boasts a beautiful bay with turquoise waters, sheltered by natural rock formations, where you can observe colonies of sea lions and hawks soaring overhead. The island is home to one of the two species of land iguanas, which mainly feed on the leaves and fruits of large cacti. You may also see crabs, nocturnal herons, marine iguanas, mockingbirds, and land doves. The bay is ideal for swimming and snorkeling, featuring highlights like marine turtles, rays, sea lions, and tropical fish. Onboard, snacks and drinks are provided, followed by lunch.

South Plaza Island

South Plaza comprises two small islands created by land uplift. This area is home to smaller land iguanas, which nest during warmer seasons. The hike provides scenic views along a dramatic cliff where seabirds nest. Approximately 1,000 sea lions reside on the island, primarily on its southern side.
