A Guide Blog for A Little Piece of Heaven: Galapagos Islands/ San Cristobal!
Have a good day, dear friends! How are you? I'll talk about Galapagos islands on this blog. Many of people wonder these islands, when they saw there. I was too! There is various big turtles and caretta carettas, seals, sea lions, land and marine iguanas, sharks, whales and more. Atmosphere of these islands are awesome and fascinating too! Let's examine now, vamos amigos! 😊
Guys, firstly we talking about Galapagos islands location. These are located east of Pacific Ocean and 1000 km away west from Ecuador. And also Galapagos islands are connected to Ecuador. We went by airplane with my wife from Ecuador. I'm not sure there is directly flight from Quito to San Cristobal island. We went from Quito to Guayaquil and from Guayaquil to San Cristobal island.
Don't forget dear friends, definitely bring a pen by your side! Because while you flight they're give to you a paper about rules of Galapagos islands. You need to fill this form about protect ecologycal system of these islands. You musn't lose the form because you need it when you arrived in San Cristobal airport you must to show customs personnel! Especially be careful this!
After custom procedures, San Cristobal welcomes you with a perfect green nature. Your agent company personnels will waiting for you there if you go there with a agent company tour. Just you need to see your name, that's it. We had a company, guide was there and he bring us our hotel by a car. Your free-tour times are always depents of your guide and tour company. Definitely ask your free and tour times to your guide!
Dear friends, your guide already say your programs and their times. After check in your hotel, you can move to your depent times. Our tour had included breakfast, lunch and dinner. We ate our lunch first and then met with our guide for visiting 'San Cristobal Interpretation Centre'. Your swim suits-shorts be on you ready because after visit this centre, you can go to a beach for swimming.
I recommend to visit for you San Cristobal Interpretation Centre absolutely! There is a information map about Galapagos islands here. You learn to history of islands and their locations, important informations about Charles Darwin, which animals living here and more informations. It has historical order here, so you can easly visit without need for a guide!
You're watching to various plants, cactuses and trees too while hiking in the Cerro Tijeretas.
It's behind to Interpretation Centre. You'll see to seals here, in the bay.
You can diving here with your goggles and snorkel. But be careful to current of this bay! Here current is so dangerious in windy and wavy weathers. I suggest you to dive waveless water. Top of the hill of this bay called Tijeretas will be fascinating view for you!
Well, now we came swim with seals dear friends! Didn't read wrong, swim with seals. Seals are unafraid of the people! But guys, i wanna warn you about don't touch to seals. It's forbidden! The reason is their moms doesn't recognize them after you touch. That's why they are staying lonely and finally die. 😩
Dear friends, another activity is free diving in Leon Dormido (Kicker Rock). We couln't do it but i talked about there with a local person. Just prepare your goggles and snorkel and do it! We saw it on the plane while landed on the island, there is awesome landscape.
I strongly recomment buy a daily tour to Espanola Island! We couldn't do it but i saw to boards from agency companies, there is like a out of world atmosphere of that island! No joke guys, it's like a little piece of heaven, especially for bird watchers. Also you can see a lot of seals and various birds, big, land and sea iguanas and if you lucky, you can see blue-footed boobies!
Lastly dear friends! San Cristobal foods are really tasty, feedly and affortable. Especially 'encebollado' soup! You know, i'm a Turk and you can guess, our food culture and cuisine sooooo deep and wide. If i like to foods, you'll already love it. 😊 That's why you can trust me.
And i want to say this, island's internet is reaaaalllyyyy slow! Know this before to go islands. Many of time you can't use video call. For this reason, you can talk about it with your family and your friends. If you more questions for me, you already know:
