Overview

We will start this adventure at 05:30 AM – 06:15 AM, one of our vehicles will pick you up at your hotel.

Then we will go to the Itabaca Channel where we will board the boat in which we will sail to Bartolomé Island.

Once we have arrived at Bartolomé, we will disembark and begin a tour of a path that will take us to one of the best views of all the Galapagos Islands. We will climb 115 meters above sea level, about 400 steps, from there, we will be able to see the famous Galapagos pinnacle, the entire Bartolomé Island and part of Santiago Island, in one day, we will have a beautiful panoramic view of the surrounding islands. and on a clear day even from others further away such as Marchena and La Pinta. An incomparable panoramic vision!

From the highest point and to the east you can see splash-type cones, formed by drops of thick lava. These cones are known as Parasitic Cones since they were not formed by the action of the main event.

To the west we find tuff cones (formed from sedimented volcanic ash) and eroded remains. The most representative Pinnacle of the Galapagos Islands and especially of this Island is a tuff cone. The main attraction of La Isla Bartolomé is the geological interpretation of the formation of the Galapagos Islands that can be given on this site.

In the visiting area there are two beaches and they are linked by a path. On the south beach you can take walks with the possibility of observing rays and blue sharks (endemic Galapagos shark) from the shore, so activities such as swimming or snorkeling are prohibited on this beach.

In contrast to the south beach, on the north beach you can do surface diving (snorkeling), during most of the year the sea is very calm which helps to carry out activities such as swimming.

Here our tour will end, we will return again to Puerto Ayora.
