See the Galapagos' famous marine life without scuba on a guided snorkelling trip from Puerto Ayora on Santa Cruz Island. At calm, sheltered sites such as Santa Fe and the bays around Pinzon, snorkellers regularly swim with playful sea lions, green turtles, rays and reef fish in clear, shallow water. No experience or certification is required, which suits families and non-divers.
Snorkelling is a non-certification activity suitable for everyone. It is a good option for non-diving companions or families, and a relaxed way to see the Galapagos' famous sea lions and turtles up close.
Snorkelling trips visit the calmest, most sheltered sites near Puerto Ayora on Santa Cruz, such as Santa Fe and the bays around Pinzon, where sea lion colonies, green turtles and rays gather in clear shallow water. These protected spots avoid the strong currents found at the deeper dive sites.
