Welcome to Santa Cruz Island: Visit The Charles Darwin Research Station
After arriving at Baltra Airport, a local guide will pick you up. You will visit the Charles Darwin Research Station. Witness firsthand the work of international scientists who come to the Galapagos to carry out environmental projects. Head to the nearby Fausto Llerena Breeding Center, where giant Galapagos tortoises breed and are cared for. This is the best place on the islands to see different tortoise species and learn about each one.

Early in the morning, you will be picked up from your hotel to go on a diving tour off the coast of Santa Cruz.
This is the perfect day to see sea lions, sharks, seals, eels, sea stars, and batfish. Depending on the authorizations from the National Park of Galapagos, you will visit any of the three different dives sites on the island - they all have their own thriving populations of rare sea life, where under its crystal clear waters you can swim with hammerhead sharks, white tip sharks, sea lions, golden rays, sea turtles, fish and a great variety of marine life.

Early in the morning, you will be picked up from your hotel to go on another diving tour off the coast of Santa Cruz.
Santa Cruz Island is home to thousands of sharks, eels, snakes, sea turtles, manta rays, barracudas, colorful tropical fish, sponges, moray eels, octopuses, and countless other amazing creatures.
You will have the opportunity to play with the curious pups of sea lions or watch how a marine iguana digs among the rocks to get its precious algae. The abundance of marine fauna makes this a unique and memorable universe. The dive sites will be generally close to the central islands of the archipelago and will allow you a complete underwater experience for both experienced divers and beginners.
Diving sites may change due to sea conditions, availability, national park restrictions, or other safety requirements.
