DAY 3

North Seymour

Yacht to North Seymour Island (or Bartolomé or Plazas Islands)

Breakfast at your hotel and then we pick you up to take our comfortable yacht that will take us to the incredible island of North Seymour. This uninhabited island is one of our favorites for animal lovers. Here you will see a large colony of Blue-footed boobies and the extremely photogenic Great Frigate birds. Also lookout for swallow-tailed gulls, marine iguanas, land iguanas, sea lions and more. 

North Seymour is particularly famous for its elegant Frigatebirds that, during mating season, rewards us with the vision (and photographs) of males inflating their guttural pouch into an enormous scarlet-red balloon to attract the females. 

After a delicious lunch onboard the yacht, we head to Bachas Beach, a beautiful white coralline expanse. This is the perfect place for practicing snorkeling, swimming or to simply enjoy the white soft sand. Several brackish lagoons only a few steps away from the sea provide feeding grounds for various wading birds, from stilts to flamingos.

Return to Puerto Ayora and enjoy another Premium dinner in one of the best restaurants in the Galapagos. 

Overnight at your Superior or Premium Hotel.

We will enjoy lunch on board before going to a beautiful white sand beach away from the crowd. Enjoy your time on this paradise before returning to Puerto Ayora.
