Pelagics, endemics, and protected waters in a living laboratory
Visão geral
Galapagos delivers big-animal action and surreal encounters with endemic species. Divers target schooling hammerheads and whale sharks at remote Darwin and Wolf, while day boats from Santa Cruz and San Cristobal reach sites like Gordon Rocks and Cousins Rock. Snorkelers and freedivers share the water with sea lions, turtles, and, in the west, penguins. Strict park rules and biosecurity protect fragile ecosystems. Plan around two distinct seasons: Dec to May brings warmer, calmer seas and better viz; Jun to Nov is cooler with strong currents and plankton that draw in megafauna.

The cold, nutrient-rich water that powers Galápagos big-animal diving is under heat stress. Expect warmer water, fewer sharp thermoclines, and a living science story — not a cancelled liveaboard.
