array of sea life. It is not unusual to see bottle nosed
dolphins, sea lions, seals, penguins, colonies of moray
eels, sea horses, marine iguanas, stingrays, and large
schools of tropical fish to name a few. Several sea currents
converge on the Galapagos, bringing with them schools
of hammerhead sharks, barracuda, and sea turtles. Manta
and eagle rays like to feed on the plankton rich waters.
On dives to the outer islands of Darwin and Wolf, you
may encounter large numbers of whale sharks. Join us
for the adventure of a lifetime. View below a sample

Year Round Destination
The Galapagos Archipelago is located on the Equator and its
climate is sub-tropical, allowing cruises to operate on a
year round basis. Temperatures are determined almost entirely
by the ocean currents that are influenced by the trade winds.
Generally, December to May is warm and sunny; June to November
is cool and breezy. Most birds nest year round, so you can
see courtship, mating, chicks hatching and rearing almost
any time of the year.
