This Galapagos 5 Day Cruise is the best Galapagos cruise itinerary to balance relaxation in luxury and inspired discovery of the unique flora and fauna.
The Galapagos Islands archipelago of 19 islands, where three ocean currents meet, is located 1,000 km from Ecuador. Untouched for millions of years the Galapagos Islands animals developed in a unique ecosystem. These islands routinely exceed our guests’ expectations.
To start your Galapagos 5 Day Cruise, a guide will meet you once you pass the government inspection station. The guide will help collect your luggage, and escort you on a short bus ride to the harbor and then on board M/Y Galapagos Sea Star Journey.
This site has a hypersaline lagoon behind the beach. It is frequented by flamingos, pintail ducks and other species of birds. This site has been re populated with land iguanas from Seymour, Isabela and Santa Cruz islands. There is a short walk to the Hill, which offers a beautiful view of the bay.
Here we can observe large groups of white-tip reef, black tipped reef and hammerhead sharks. You will also see schools of golden rays and spotted eagle rays. There are no landing sites, so the visit is done by panga or kayak. Sea turtles are frequently seen and sometimes they are seen mating in the mangrove-lined waters. Pelicans and Herons are also seen in this area.
This is an excellent site for interpretation of geological features such as lava tubes and lava flows. There are many sea lions’ colonies, marine iguanas and Galapagos penguins.
A favorite island for birdwatchers. See red footed-booby, masked boobies, wandering tattlers, lava gulls, whimbrels Yellow-crowned, black-crowned and lava herons, with and yellow warblers.
Bird watching includes sightings of Sharp-Beaked Finches, Large Cactus and Ground Finches, Galapagos Doves and Swallow-Tailed Gulls. Reaching the end, the trail at the cliff’s edge offers an incredible view of the island and the many birds living there.
El Barranco is located in the southern part of Darwin Bay and it is also known as Prince Philip’s Steps, passengers will climb to a plateau that is part of the stretch of land that surrounds Darwin Bay on its eastern side.
Volcanic cones, lunar-like craters, lava fields, and the famous Toba formed pinnacle eroded by the sea. It has two breathtaking beaches where marine turtles and a very small colony of Galapagos penguins live.
Santiago is volcanically active. It has many young flows and cones, particularly along the south, west, and east coasts. There were some historic eruptions over the last 2 centuries.
We hope you enjoy our Galapagos 4 Day Cruise. To be inspired read more from the Ecuador Ministry of Tourism
The trail to the highlands leaves from Bellavista and passes through the agricultural zone, near the National Park boundary, the Miconia Zone, and then goes to the Fern and Sedge zone.
With clear weather (unpredictable) this area affords beautiful scenes of rolling hills and extinct volcanic cones covered with grass and lush greenery all year round. Then transfer back to Baltra for embarkation on flight back home.
