Rábida & Isabela
A 3-day Galápagos cruise aboard Cachalote Explorer, calling at Baltra, Santa Cruz, Santiago, Rábida, Isabela. Three days reveal a striking cross-section of the Galapagos, from Santa Cruz’s green highlands to the red sand of Rábida and the dark volcanic landscapes of Isabela. Begin among Galapagos giant tortoises and the conservation work of the Charles Darwin Research Station, then explore Chinese Hat and Rábida by foot, panga and in the water. The final day reaches southern Isabela, where volcanic terrain meets the relaxed island life of Puerto Villamil.
