What to expect
Your heart will skip beats as you behold a face-to-face encounter with the Galapagos sharks, multi-colored fishes, sea lions, and marine iguanas while snorkeling. The serene crystalline waters ensure that the visibility under the water is excellent and that snorkelers of all ages are able to enjoy their experience with contented happiness. After snorkeling, we will return for a round of tasty refreshments and hot drinks on the boat.
Then we will take a panga (dinghy) excursion to allow to catch some of the most impressive marine fauna followed by a second snorkeling adventure which lasts for about 40 minutes.
After enjoying a tranquil lunch on the boat, our last stop will be at La Fe when we are heading back to Santa Cruz.
As we head back to the dock of Puerto Ayora, we will engage in fishing activities carried out as a team. We will make a return to the dock of Puerto Ayora in due time after completing the whole day tour.

Overall a great tour, but a couple of issues.....we went to see Marine Lizards while on the snorkeling adventure and had to walk over somewhat dangerous lava rocks. Those rocks hurt a lot to walk over because we were all barefoot. It was actually dangerous. A simple fall would result in pretty bad cuts or bruises or broken bones. Got to have something on the feet to do this. The boat was a little beat up and the snorkel gear was old and beat up pretty bad. Several people had leaky masks and the snorkels needed valves to keep water out. They were old as well.We were told they would pick up 5 adults at our hotel dock finch bay at 7:30am we were wait there 20 mins past that time when a boy finally showed up in a water taxi and told us to go with him.

We were told they would pick up 5 adults at our hotel dock finch bay at 7:30am we were wait there 20 mins past that time when a boy finally showed up in a water taxi and told us to go with him. Took the boat over to puerto ayora dock where he told us to follow him walking several blocks to another hotel where we met the tour guide. Here we waited another 20 mins for other people then we all walked to the boat a short distance away. Very confusing instructions for meeting up with tour boat - not happyJohn was a great bilingual guide and made sure we saw everything that La Fe and Pinzon had to offer.
