About This Tour
Visit the oldest island in the entire Galapagos archipelago! 🐦🌋
Española Island dates back 4 million years, making it the most ancient island in the chain. This full-day expedition takes you to Punta Suárez, where you'll witness one of the most spectacular natural displays in the world.
See the iconic waved albatross (the only place on Earth where they breed), Nazca boobies, blue-footed boobies performing their famous mating dance, and the endemic Española marine iguanas with their striking red and green coloring.
Don't miss El Soplador Geológico — a natural blowhole that shoots ocean spray up to 25 meters into the air. End the day snorkeling at the pristine Bahía Gardner, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Galapagos.
