Southern to Western Galapagos
A 11-day Galápagos cruise aboard Hermes, calling at San Cristóbal, Española, Floreana, Santa Cruz, Santiago, Genovesa. This 11-day Hermes voyage starts on San Cristóbal, reaches the southern islands and Genovesa in the north, then carries on to the volcanic west. On Española, walk the cliffs where waved albatrosses breed and spend time at Gardner Bay; on Floreana, look for wildlife around the green shore of Punta Cormorant and explore its storied Post Office Bay. The middle of the journey opens into the northern visitor sites: Dragon Hill, Chinese Hat and Genovesa, where red-footed boobies and Nazca boobies nest close to the trails.
