About San Cristóbal
Kicker Rock split by a channel a hundred and forty metres deep, sea lions asleep on the benches of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, a crater lake at El Junco holding fresh water all year: San Cristobal is the easternmost island and one of the oldest, and it is the only one where an airport, a town and a tortoise reserve sit within half an hour of each other. La Galapaguera raises the island's own subspecies. Sixty-four of our itineraries call at San Cristobal across 15 ships, from $1,530 per person, on trips of 3 to 14 nights.
Twelve visitor sites, more than any other island, and a good half of the calls are an arrival or a departure rather than a landing. Kicker Rock is a snorkelling stop where hammerheads are possible and never promised. Read the itinerary for which of the twelve a given week actually reaches.
