After lunch, you’ll visit a traditional Trapiche (a small, family-run sugarcane mill) where locals still craft cane liquor, coffee, and panela using age-old methods. By late afternoon, you'll make your way down to Puerto Ayora to settle into your hotel and relax as the island vibe takes over.

Snorkeling day trip to Pinzon Island: A live aquarium!

Your day kicks off with a hotel pickup and a short ride to the dock, where you’ll board the boat bound for Pinzón Island, a hidden gem for snorkel lovers. Along the way, keep your eyes open for dolphins, rays, and even whales if you're lucky. Once at Pinzón, you’ll dive into some of the clearest waters in the Galapagos, snorkeling with white-tip reef sharks, sea turtles, playful sea lions, and colorful tropical fish. The marine life here is abundant and often incredibly curious, making it feel like you're part of the reef. Between snorkeling spots, you’ll enjoy a freshly prepared lunch on board and relax under the sun. It's the perfect mix of adventure, wildlife, and island vibes: a must-do for ocean lovers.

At 11:00 a.m., our team will pick you up and take you back to Baltra Airport for your short flight to Isabela Island. 


Once you land, the adventure continues with a visit to the flamingo lagoon, where these pink-feathered birds wade gracefully in the shallow waters. Then it’s off to your hotel, set right in front of a stunning 6-kilometer beach, ideal for a peaceful walk, a swim, or simply watching the waves roll in as the sun starts to dip.

Los Tuneles: top snorkeling site!

With your guide, you’ll snorkel through these crystal-clear waters, swimming alongside sea turtles, white-tip reef sharks, seahorses, rays, and playful sea lions. 


Above water, you might spot blue-footed boobies nesting on the rocks and Galapagos penguins sunbathing nearby. It’s a surreal blend of volcanic beauty and underwater wonder: an experience you’ll carry with you long after the day ends!
