What's the best time of year for a 4 day Galapagos cruise?

The Galápagos islands straddle the equator, which means there's never a "bad" time to visit. Because a short Galápagos cruise does limit the number of islands you can visit we would suggest that you avoid September when the seas can be rough - as well as being uncomfortable for some passengers, it can slow the travel time between visitor sites.

Apart from that, the Galápagos wildlife is active all year round, and you will be able to see iconic species like Giant Tortoises, Galápagos marine iguanas, and Blue-Footed Booby at any time.

December to May is considered the "warm season", with temperatures averaging in the 90'sF, and the sea temperatures are their warmest - perfect if you want to enjoy a short Galápagos cruise with lots of snorkeling.

June to November is the "cool" season, although temperatures still average in the low-80'sF! This time of year tends to be cloudier, with occasional rain showers, and sea temperatures are at their coolest thanks to cold currents - but these bring nutrients to the surface so there is more sea life to be seen for divers and snorkelers.

.

In short, then, there is no bad time to plan a 4 day Galápagos cruise! However you really should book well in advance, as these 4 day cruises are very popular, and they sell out quickly during Christmas and New Year, Easter and July and August. Contact one of our Galápagos travel advisors today and let them help you plan the perfect short Galápagos cruise as part of your South American adventure!
