From June through November it is a bit cooler and more breezy, but it is still warm. The average sea temperature in August is 66 degrees Fahrenheit. The Galapagos are a good place to visit year round. Our cruises are all seven nights long. This allows visitors the opportunity to see some of the more spectacular sites in the islands.
Shorter itineraries leave out important islands full of interesting creatures.
Most visitors feel that since they travel a long way to reach these remote volcanic outcroppings, that the trip should include the most important sites. The yachts we offer have different itineraries, but all of them are good ones. The Galapagos National Park Service allows visits to only about 50 sites on the islands so different vessels visit many of the same sites. There are some variations, so look through the enclosed itineraries and then read about the islands themselves in our Island Descriptions. All trips to the Galapagos begin with flights to mainland Ecuador.
