أفضل وقت للزيارة

December to May for warmer seas and calmer waters, ideal for snorkeling and diving. June to November brings cooler temperatures but richer marine life thanks to the Humboldt Current.

نصائح للميزانية

Entry to the national park costs $100 per person (cash only, paid upon arrival). Book a liveaboard cruise for the best value: they bundle accommodation, meals, guided excursions, and inter-island transport into one price.

حول

حقائق سريعة: Over 97% of the land is protected as a national park, and the archipelago sits at the confluence of three ocean currents, creating a unique mix of marine life not found anywhere else. More than 1,700 species found here are endemic, including the only penguin species that lives north of the equator.

النقاط البارزة: Marine iguanas here have evolved to sneeze salt out of their nostrils, a bizarre adaptation from spending hours underwater grazing on algae. Watch them bask on black lava rocks after a snorkel, looking like tiny dragons with white salt crowns crusted on their heads.

نصائح من الداخل

  • Skip the crowded morning tours at Tortuga Bay by going at sunrise: you'll have the white sand beach nearly to yourself.
  • Pack a dry bag for every boat ride, salt spray soaks through regular backpacks within minutes.
  • Book your flights to Baltra or San Cristobal months in advance, only a handful of daily flights connect the mainland to the islands.
  • Bring a reusable water bottle with a filter, single-use plastics are banned across the entire archipelago.
