THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS
• As far as touring is concerned. We will have a few different touring options each night. Choices including, the beach (with sea lions), The Galapagos Interpretation Center, snorkeling in Isla Lobos (Tijeretas), hiking El Junco Crater and viewing the lake there, visiting turtles in the Galapagera, seeing the lizards, other cool wildlife,ect and of course a boat tour or two. The group will hit one of these or something just as cool every night.
• As far as snorkeling is concerned bring your own mask and gear, or you can purchase it on the island but it´s outrageously expensive. |
|
• As far as scuba diving, there is the possibility you may get to go, but you will need to make your own arrangements and it may not fit in with our service schedule. Do what you would like, but snorkeling may be almost as cool without the huge hassle and cost. We definitely recommend going with the snorkeling.
• Every morning (or most every morning) we will be having a small group go jogging and maybe to the beach afterwards. This is for those willing to sacrifice some sleep, but it will be tons of fun and everyone is welcome to come. Just bring your jogging shoes. |
|
• As far as temperature is concerned, the island is very hot and humid. Bring shorts and flip flops, but a good pair of shoes for construction, hiking, ect... also, bring a light jacket or sweater for our touring and the few cool nights we may have. (it may rain also, so a poncho may be a good idea.)
• Sunglasses and sunscreen are great!!!!!!! (don´t forget we are on the equator...)
• Bugs were not a big problem, repellent is a good idea, but no major worries or problems as far as diseases or anything. |
|
• You will be sleeping on the floor so bring a small sleeping bag. (a pillow and pad are up to you, but good luck finding space in your baggage. We recommend just using your jacket as a pillow : ) )
• Food will be fixed for us every day and it will be delicious!! Mmm mmm good!
• The island is beautiful and the people wonderful you will love it! There is so much good we can do! |
