Santa Cruz Bay Tour & Snorkeling: Sharks, Sea Lions & GalapagosYou visit four snorkeling sites around Santa Cruz in one day: a sea lion colony, a shark channel, a narrow canal between rock walls, and a freshwater inlet. The boat carries no more than ten people, your guide speaks English and Spanish, and snacks keep you going through the afternoon. Bring a wetsuit or rent one — the water is cool even near the equator.Is it for me?Book this if you want to snorkel four different Galapagos sites in one day without arranging your own boat, guide or timing — the small group size and fixed schedule are what make it possible to hit all four stops and still have time underwater at each one.
Pinzón Island snorkeling and fishing tour: Sharks, turtles, tunaA full-day snorkeling and fishing activity in the Galápagos that takes you to Pinzón Island and La Fé Bay, where you'll move from shallow, calm water into deeper zones rich with sharks, sea turtles, rays, sea lions, marine iguanas and other species. The boat carries wetsuits, snorkel equipment and a naturalist guide; lunch and water taxis are included. Seven hours total, with English or Spanish-speaking guide; children from age 2 are welcome.Is it for me?Spend a full day snorkeling and fishing without the logistics—we provide the boat, gear, wetsuits, and naturalist guide who navigates the route and explains the wildlife you encounter.
Snorkeling Isabela Island: Penguins, sharks and giant tortoisesThis full-day snorkeling tour of Isabela Island combines underwater wildlife—sea turtles, rays, sharks and penguins—with land walks to see flamingos, giant tortoises and marine iguanas. A naturalist guide leads the boat tour and the snorkel activity; you travel by public speedboat from the mainland, with a private driver handling transport on Isabela itself. The tour runs 10 hours and includes lunch at an oceanfront restaurant, snorkel gear and wetsuits, entry to the tortoise breeding centre, and a walk along Isabela's only coconut palm beach.Is it for me?The tour runs 10 hours with water entry, multiple walks and an early start, so it suits travelers comfortable with a full day of activity and movement. If you want to see both underwater and land wildlife in one outing—penguins, sharks, tortoises and flamingos—without arranging your own boat or guide, this combination of snorkeling and guided stops does that.
Galapagos: Santa Fe Island Snorkel & Hidden Beach Day TripYou’ll step straight into turquoise Galapagos waters to snorkel beside playful sea lions at Santa Fe Island, spot turtles and rays gliding below, then relax with lunch on deck before wandering Hidden Beach’s untouched sands—all with a local guide who knows every twist of coastline. It’s equal parts wild energy and quiet moments.
Santa Fe Island snorkeling day trip: Sea lions, sharks, turtlesA full-day snorkeling trip from Santa Cruz to Santa Fe Island in the Galápagos, where you snorkel at two separate sites and see sea lions, sharks and turtles in the water. The boat ride takes about an hour each way; lunch happens in Santa Fe Bay while you watch sea lions on the rocks, and the final stop at Playa Escondida lets you either wade onto the white sand beach or keep snorkeling, depending on what you want that afternoon.Is it for me?Spend a full day exploring two snorkeling sites with everything coordinated for you—then choose at Playa Escondida whether to beach or stay in the water.
