Galapagos Cruises : M/V Santa Cruz (5 Days/4 Nights) |
|
|
Experience Ecuador’s unique marine and terrestrial wild life on the Galapagos Islands!
| Overview | |
|
Have an unforgettable holiday in one of the most remote and starkly beautiful places on earth, the spectacular Galapagos Islands. Made famous by Charles Darwin, these volcanic islands are situated in the Pacific Ocean, at the confluence of three ocean currents and some 1,000 kilometres from the South American continent. These islands have been called a unique ‘living museum and showcase of evolution’ and are on UNESCO’s List of World Heritage Sites in Danger. Enjoy the elegance of the M/V Santa Cruz, a luxurious ship that is ideal for navigating through the Galapagos Islands. The daily island visits will include dinghy rides among mangrove-lined islets for a closer observation of the dramatic landscape and coastline, as well as a gamut of water-based activities like snorkeling and swimming. The Santa Cruz Island is a bird-lovers’ paradise and is home to rare species such as boobies, frigates and pelicans. The navigation in the shallow turquoise waters at this island is ideal for watching marine turtles, rays and sharks and the natural nesting site of land iguanas. An abundance of unusual flora and fauna set in these unusual volcanic islands will make this a holiday to remember.
