The Day Tour to Bartholomew Island departs from Itabaca Canal, with a scenic two-hour sail northwest of Santa Cruz Island. Known for its stunning and widely photographed landscapes, Bartholomew Island boasts the iconic Pinnacle Rock. The trail, crafted from wood, leads to the summit of this extinct volcano, offering breathtaking panoramic views that make the ascent worthwhile. Afterwards, snorkeling takes place in Sullivan Bay, located on nearby Santiago Island just five minutes from Bartholomew. Here, you can expect encounters with Galapagos penguins, sea turtles, whitetip sharks, rays, and other marine wildlife swimming in the shallow waters.
