Description

Embark on a 360-degree tour of San Cristóbal Island, a must-see destination in the Galápagos. Visit some of the island's most beautiful beaches and bays, and explore its crystal-clear waters while snorkeling at Kicker Rock, a spectacular rock formation located off the south coast of the island. Start your 360-degree tour at 7:00 AM at the tour operator's agency in San Cristóbal. Get ready with snorkeling equipment, including a short wetsuit, fins, mask, and snorkel, ensuring a comfortable and safe experience in the water. From the agency, transfer to Acuario I Pier to meet your certified naturalist guide, who will accompany you on this adventure, providing details about the flora, fauna, and geology of each site on the tour. The first stop on the tour is Kicker Rock, an iconic snorkeling spot where you can swim among Galápagos sharks, hammerhead sharks, turtles, manta rays, and sea lions, surrounded by an impressive marine biodiversity. This is a privileged place to observe seabirds such as frigates and blue-footed boobies. Continue to Cerro Brujo, where you can admire the 'Cathedral,' a spectacular natural geological formation. This site is ideal for photography and bird watching, including blue-footed boobies and other endemic species. Next, head to Bahía Sardina, where you can enjoy a walk along the beach and a relaxing snorkeling session. This is an excellent opportunity to observe sea lions, rays, and sea turtles. Sail to Punta Pitt, the only place in the Galápagos Islands where you can see red-footed boobies. You will also have the option of sport fishing for tuna or wahoo, depending on ocean conditions, for an authentic experience of life at sea. The next stop is Rosa Blanca Beach, where you will be served lunch surrounded by the serene atmosphere of the bay, ideal for recharging your energy. Explore the lagoon with a snorkeling session and spot turtles, rays, sea lions, and reef sharks in its crystal-clear waters. Then, relax on its white sand beach before continuing the tour. Return to Puerto Baquerizo Moreno at around 4:00 PM, subject to ocean conditions. Conclude this incredible 360-degree tour in San Cristóbal full of unforgettable memories of each site visited and the stunning biodiversity of the islands.
