If you want to cruise Galapagos then our list of cruises in the Galapagos are sure to please especially our galapagos yacht range. The Galapagos archipelago is renowned for its unique and fearless wildlife and as a mecca for evolutionists. You can swim with sea lions, float eye-to-eye with penguins and stand beside a blue-footed booby as it feeds its young. The barren and volcanic landscape is peerless in its haunting beauty. The archipelago spreads out over 50,000 sq km (19,500 sq mi) of the Pacific Ocean some 1000km (620mi) west of Ecuador and is comprised of 13 main islands and six smaller ones. The highest point in the chain is the 1707m (5600ft) Volcán Wolf on Isla Isabela.
Located on the Equator, from which the country derives its name, Ecuador experiences little variation in climate throughout the year, apart from a brief rainy season in the highlands, roughly from November to May, with rain falling mainly in the afternoon or during the night. Temperature differences are governed by altitude rather than season, with the highlands enjoying a pleasant spring-like climate for most of the year, with warm weather during the daytime, dropping to fairly low temperatures at night due to the high altitude. Owing to their location at sea level on the Equator, the Galapagos Islands experience a hot, dry climate for most of the year. The Galapagos Islands are strangely dry for the ecuatorial position.
