Pinzon Island tour itinerary
The tour starts from the pier of Puerto Ayora, on Santa Cruz Island. After an hour of navigation, you will reach the first stop called La Fe, where you can snorkel to enjoy a large number of sea turtles and countless colorful fish. After that, navigation continues until Pinzón Island; snacks are served on your way.
The trip to Pinzon Island takes approximately an hour from La Fe beach, and during that time it is possible spot dolphins jumping around the yacht. Getting closer to the “Rock without a name”, in the middle of the sea, you can practice experiential fishing and, with a bit of luck, catch a yellowfin tuna.
Snorkeling in Pinzon Island
Upon arrival at Pinzon Island, the crew of the boat and the guide will take you to Penguin Bay, here you can observe many whitetip reef sharks that are resting in its crystal-clear waters, sea turtles, sea lions and lots of fish like the king angelfish and the parrotfish. After snorkeling, you will be served a delicious lunch and finally will head back to Puerto Ayora. The tour to Pinzón Island is a great opportunity to swim with whitetip reef sharks. Don't miss it!
