About this trip

 

San Cristóbal island to → Santa Cruz Island

Departures: 7:00 am 



Important information

  • Show up 45 minutes before departure time
  • You must pay $1 for the water taxi from the pier to the ferry
  • Travel time: approximately 2 hours. 
  • The luggage check is carried out 30 minutes before the departure of the ferry.
  • Taxes: Have on hand $1 for the payment of the tax to the dock in Puerto Ayora and $10 for the entrance to Isabela Island.
  • In the first half of the year, from January to June, sea conditions are more stable than in the second half, from July to December, when the waves are strongest.
  • Booking in advance guarantees a safe, comfortable and hassle-free trip.
  • Ferries only travel to the inhabited islands of San Cristobal, Isabela, Santa Cruz and Floreana. To visit other islands you need to book a daily tour.
  • The boats do not travel directly from Cristobal Island to Isabela, they make a stop on Santa Cruz Island.
  • The only Island that charges an entry tax is Isabela Island.
  • Eat breakfast or lunch in advance.
  • The approximate travel time between islands is 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • There are additional costs such as the $ 1 water taxi. Have cash on hand.
  • Each passenger can carry up to 23 kg of luggage. Excess luggage will be charged a $10 fee.
  • Take a motion sickness pill one hour before leaving since the weather at sea is not predictable. Seas can be very high some days and very calm on others.
  • Sit as close as possible to the outboard motors because they spend more time in the water and you will not feel the pounding caused by the waves in the front of the boat.
  • Protect your travel bags well as seawater can sometimes enter the boat.
  • Have personal documents in a safe and dry place.
  • Enjoy the trip, you may see dolphins.

We are a team with more than 30 years of experience in the tourism industry. Because we are residents of San Cristobal ourselves, Galapagos Booking Travel specializes in operating a variety of day and overnight (cruise) tours throughout the one-of-a-kind Galapagos Islands, such as a trip to Kicker Rock, or a longer-term stay on our charter boat, the Seaman II. We also offer tours of the mainland, including the highlights of the UNESCO World Heritage city Quito and the colorful Otavalo market
