Climate & Weather

There are 2 seasons: December to May is warm and moist and June to December is usually cool and dry. Yearly precipitation in the lower regions is 2-4in and the temperatures ranges somewhere between 69°-84°F/21°-29°C.

The Galapagos’s weather conditions are influenced by sea flow. The abrupt climatic change due to El Niño is generally devastating: as many as 50% of sea lions and marine iguanas can perish during this period.

The convergence of 3 major oceanic currents creates an unbelievable blend of sea life to this islands. Despite being located in the equator, the Galapagos micro-climate is surprisingly dry. During the cold season, the Humboldt Current provides cold waters, which usually generates thermal inversions that obstruct precipitation.

At this time, a fine mist named “garua” is formed as cool, moist air just above the water meets a superior level of air which is heated up by the hot sun.

‘El Niño’ can be described as a rare event that happens approximately every 5-7 years. The southeast trade winds slow its speed and cause the marine temperatures to increase greatly causing thunder storms and rainfall.

In order to keep the natural beauty of Galapagos Islands, the Galapagos National Park have decreased the number of visitors by requiring boats to wait 14 days prior to returning to the same location. This usually means that many ships offer alternating itineraries to be able to cover as many of their finest Galapagos websites as you can. All Galapagos small ship cruises have between 4-16 passengers, making sure that a more personalized service and experience.

The Galapagos Islands became famous when Charles Darwin based his ‘Theory of Evolution’ on his findings there. Made up of a cluster of around 13 volcanic islands, around 95% of this area is now part of the Galapagos National Park program and announced a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

A Galapagos cruise will provide a truly distinctive experience.

The Way to Get to the Galapagos Islands

The Jose Joaquin de Olmedo International Airport at Guayaquil (GYE) receives flights out of U.S. cities of Miami and New York, European cities of Amsterdam and Madrid, and major cities of Central and South America. Mariscal Sucre International Airport of Quito (UIO) receives flights from the U.S. through Atlanta, Houston, Miami and New York; from Europe through Madrid and Amsterdam; also out of many major cities in Central and Southern America. We recommend you to arrive in Ecuador at least two times before your Galapagos Cruise begins and catch your international flight home at least 2 days following your stay in the Galapagos. It’s possible to take benefit of both of these days by visiting Quito, Guayaquil, or even their surroundings. Once you’ve your flight to mainland Ecuador, getting into the Galapagos Islands is simple. Located almost 1,000 km (600 miles) from Ecuador’s coast, the only way to travel is by airplane. Whether from Quito or Guayaquil, there are numerous flights every day that take passengers into the archipelago. You can land on Baltra Island or at Puerto Baquerizo Moreno on San Cristobal Island. TAME, AVIANCA and LAN are the airlines that run these paths. If you are flying from Quito, you will almost certainly have a brief stop in Guayaquil on your way into the islands.

To the Galapagos Islands there are no recommended immunizations. If you, however, intend to invest additional time in Ecuador, especially in the jungle, immunization is suggested. As this changes from time to time please consult the regional health office (or the Institute for Tropical Diseases) a few weeks in advance of your journey.

Will we have to swap some money before we travel to Ecuador or after in the country?

Not if you have US dollars. In 2000, Ecuador adopted the US dollar as its official currency. Just be sure that you bring money bills in great shape with you. Should they have tears in them, they’re likely to be refused.
