Tortuga Bay Galapagos Day Trip

Join us for a day trip to Tortuga Bay to experience the natural beauty of the Ecuadorian Islands. After pickup from your accommodation in Santa Cruz Island, we will begin with a 40-minute walk through the forest to Tortuga Bay.

Arriving at Playa Mansa Beach, surrounded by mangroves, you can relax, sunbathe, or swim. Lunch can be enjoyed at your leisure. At approximately 2 pm, we will regroup at the Tortuga Bay dock to board a boat for a sea exploration. We will stop at La Lobería to swim and snorkel with sea lions.

Our tour continues to the Tunnel of Love, a natural fissure with turquoise waters, where we may spot oceanic white-tip sharks from a viewpoint. We will also visit Playa de los Perros Beach, known for its marine iguanas, before heading back with a final stop at a beach at Punta Estrada. The tour lasts 8 hours, concluding with drop-off at your hotel.
