Sailing itineraries

Baltra Santa Cruz
Morning – Baltra Airport Upon arrival at Baltra Airport, you will pass through a checkpoint to... see+ prevent the introduction of foreign plants or animals, then you will need to pay the park entrance fee (US$200 unless prepaid). A guide will be waiting for you, collect your luggage, and take you by bus to the port. You will then board the yacht. After meeting the crew and the captain, you will be assigned your cabins, then enjoy your first lunch on board. Afternoon – Highlands (Santa Cruz) The native forest of Scalesia in the El Chato reserve is the ideal place to observe Galápagos giant tortoises in their natural habitat! Although breeding centers make it easy to see them, nothing beats seeing them in the wild. The terrain is sometimes wet and muddy, and the tortoises can slip away silently from their favorite watering holes, making the excursion more adventurous.
The Twin Craters are located on either side of the road leading to Puerto Ayora. These impressive formations are not volcanic craters, but collapsed magma chambers, created when lava domes solidified on the surface as the magma flowed out. Nestled in a cloud forest of endemic Scalesia trees, these areas are also home to the carpenter finch, which uses tools to feed, and sometimes the beautiful bright red vermilion flycatcher. 
Activities: Includes: Encounter with giant tortoises, see+

Santa Cruz North Seymour Island Mosquera Islet
AM – North Seymour
Seymour is an uplifted (not volcanic) island, generally flat and scattered... see+ with boulders. It hosts large nesting colonies of magnificent frigatebirds. Blue-footed boobies perform their courtship dance in open spaces, while swallow-tailed gulls perch on the cliffs. Despite the pounding surf, sea lions haul out onto the beach and can even be seen bodysurfing.

PM – Mosquera
Galapagos sea lions are true beach lovers, and Mosquera's white coral sand beaches, contrasted by turquoise waters, attract many of them. On a walk along the beach, you can spot wading birds and sanderlings. Red Sally Lightfoot crabs hide among the rocks, perfect for a photo challenge. With some luck, you may even see a yellow-crowned night-heron or a red-footed booby. 
Activities: Includes: Exploration of Mosquera Islet, see+

Mosquera Islet Genovesa Island
AM - Darwin Bay (Genovesa)
Inside the submerged caldera of Genovesa lies Darwin Bay, with a... see+ diameter of more than 1.5 km/1 mi and it is almost 200 m/650 ft deep. The small area will surprise you repeatedly, walking along a coral sand beach, crossing barren lava formations and creeks, passing tidal pools, shrubs and further ahead following the top of some cliffs. With these peaceful surroundings, every single species has occupied its ecological niche without disturbing others. Whimbrels and wandering tattlers forage actively along the surf, next to resting Galapagos sea lions. Impressive frigatebirds and red-footed boobies nest in the mangroves, where you can also see vocalists such as the yellow warbler, Darwin’s finches and the Galapagos mockingbird. Uniquely, two subpopulations of the same species of large cactus finch differ in their singing.

PM - Prince Phillip’s Steps (Genovesa)
Before landing, you will take a dinghy ride along the eastern arm of the caldera. As you approach, the soaring 25 m/80 ft high walls become overwhelming. Sometimes, a Galapagos fur seal is resting or a seabird is nesting on one of the ledges at the base. You will then have to hike and overcome the steep stairs from the landing dock to a bush of palo santo shrubs on top. Red-footed boobies gratefully use these scarce nesting places; so that they don’t have to nest on the rocky ground. Upon arriving at the edge of the rim, the bushes open up and you can enjoy panoramic views, a strong sea breeze and the amazing flying skills of countless seabirds. Following the exposed rim, you will first pass the Nazca boobies and finally reach the extensive storm petrel nesting places, where, if you’re lucky, you can spot the well-camouflaged short-eared owl hunting for food! 
Activities: Includes: Visit to Darwin Bay, Prince Phillip´s Steps, see+

Genovesa Island South Plaza Santa Fe
AM - South Plaza
You will enjoy an unforgettable guided walk on South Plaza, the best place to... see+ encounter endemic Galapagos land iguanas, patient and photogenic models. You can also look out for some of the unique hybrids between the male marine iguana and female land iguana. Arriving at the upper rim, about 20m/75ft downwards impressively droning waves splash against the foot of soaring cliffs. Clouds of petrels, storm petrels, shearwaters and brown noddies make spectacular flights and sometimes look like they’re walking on the waves. Take your binoculars and don’t miss the red-billed tropicbird with its graceful long tail and spectacular mating fights. These cliffs are also a nesting place for the endemic swallow-tailed gull.

PM - Santa Fe
Located in the southeastern part of the Galapagos, this island was formed from an uplift instead of a volcanic origin, which is why it is mostly flat. Some theories assure this could be the oldest island in the archipelago. Santa Fe is the home of several endemic species like the Galapagos hawk, Galapagos snake, Galapagos mockingbird, rice rats and one of the two species of land iguanas of the islands. After disembarking in the beautiful and clear waters, you will be in contact with one of the many sea lion colonies. Along the trail, many salt bushes can be seen as well as giant prickly pear cactus; gigantism is a characteristic of oceanic islands. Although there is little vegetation on this island, it has two breathtaking beaches, where sea turtles live. At the foot of the mountain you can also discover a small colony of Galapagos penguins.

Santa Fe San Cristobal
AM - Witch Hill (San Cristobal)
After mooring at San Cristobal pier, you will begin your excursion... see+ to Witch Hill. The main attraction of this site is the coral sand beach, an excellent spot for swimming and snorkeling. Witch Hill is the remains of a tuff cone and one of the first sites visited by Charles Darwin. It offers an impressive landscape where you can often see coastal and migratory birds including pelicans, blue-footed boobies, and swallow-tailed gulls, as well as sea lions and marine iguanas. At times, the lagoon is completely dry with salt deposits on the bottom. The people of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno used to mine salt from the lagoon.
Transfer to San Cristobal Airport
After that, it is time to say goodbye to the Galapagos! It has been a pleasure accompanying you on this unique trip and we hope to see you again very soon. Assisted by the naturalist guide and some crew members, the dinghy will bring you and your luggage to San Cristobal airport. If you have booked a longer stay with us, we will be happy to welcome new fellow passengers aboard the yacht to continue our trip to the next destination!
