The 9 days Galapagos Islands journey aboard the Letty Yacht begins with an arrival at San Cristóbal Airport, where guests prepare to immerse themselves in an adventure that promises breathtaking landscapes and encounters with unspoiled nature. The first stop is the Galapagos National Park Visitor Center, located on San Cristóbal Island. Opened in 1998, this center provides a comprehensive overview of the archipelago’s natural and cultural history, with informative panels and a small auditorium for visitors to learn more about the islands’ unique features. Next, guests visit the Cerro Colorado Interpretation Center, where they can observe the giant tortoise breeding program, established by the National Park in 2003 to protect and preserve this iconic Galapagos species.
The second day the itinerary includes a visit to Punta Pitt and Cerro Brujo, two incredibly beautiful locations. Cerro Brujo, a coral sand beach, is famous for its sea lions, marine iguanas, and numerous migratory birds. Here, travelers can snorkel in the crystal-clear waters and get up close to the local wildlife.
