Your adventure begins early in the morning with a bus ride from town to Itabaca Canal, where you’ll board a comfortable yacht for a full-day excursion filled with discovery and natural beauty.

This program includes scenic cruising, a guided hike to admire the island’s volcanic formations, snorkeling with all equipment provided, a freshly prepared lunch on board, and plenty of opportunities to relax and enjoy the surroundings before heading back to Puerto Ayora for your last night in the Galápagos.

Bartolomé is a small but stunning volcanic island located near Santiago Island, rising just 114 meters above sea level. Its surreal landscape, shaped by past eruptions, features a mix of red, orange, black, and green tones across the terrain.

One of the island’s highlights is the famous Pinnacle Rock, a striking lava formation created by explosive volcanic activity when hot magma met the sea. Behind this iconic rock, you might spot Galápagos penguins, and nearby, twin crescent-shaped beaches invite you to swim and snorkel in crystal-clear waters surrounded by fascinating marine life. The island also offers panoramic views from the summit, making the short hike truly rewarding.
