Board an exclusive private yacht to Pinzón Island — one of the Galápagos' most pristine and least-visited islands — for a full day of snorkelling with sea turtles, swimming with sea lions, and wildlife encounters that feel entirely untouched by tourism.
What to expect
Depart Puerto Ayora at dawn aboard a private vessel, reaching Pinzón Island after a scenic Pacific crossing. Snorkel alongside hawksbill sea turtles and playful sea lion colonies in crystalline waters, guided by a licensed naturalist. After your time ashore spotting land iguanas and Darwin finches, the crew serves a gourmet dinner as the sun sets over the archipelago. The return crossing under a star-filled sky is pure Galápagos magic.
Good to know
Full day — approximately 8 hours; confirm all-aboard time and factor in a 20–30 min water-taxi return to your ship. Pre-book well in advance as private yacht slots are extremely limited. Galápagos National Park entrance fee (USD 200 for international visitors) must be paid separately on arrival at Baltra/San Cristóbal airport.
