Itinerario
Súbete abordo para un día de snorkeling (free-diving) al icónico "Kicker Rock" (León Dormido) y a lugares de playas secluídas y otros lugares increíbles! Tu vas a estar acompañado por un Guía Naturalista del Parque Nacional Galápagos en todo momento para un encuentro lleno de misterio de vida natural y paisajes.
Lugar de playa secluída en el lado Noroeste de la isla San Cristóbal. Increíbles paisajes y vida salvaje, no tan virtuoso como el León Dormido pero podrás observar de cerca especies más pequeñas como peces tropicales, leones marinos, rayas, tortugas marinas, y otros invertebrados . Dependiendo del día de la semana, alternamos la playa (lugar de descanso) en donde nos anclaremos y almorzamos para luego desembarcar.
Nos paramos cerca de "Isla Lobos" donde fragatas anidan en los arbustos de las islas, piqueros patas azules a lo largo (y usulamente dentro) de la pequeña isla, y leones marinos muy cerca.
"Cerro Tijeretas" o "Bahía de Darwin" es un mirador ubicados cerca de la entrada al puerto de la isla. Este lugar es conocido como el lugar de desembarque del reconocido científico Charles Darwin en 1835 en las Galápagos. Tijeretas es uno de los mas grandes lugares de anidaciòn de las fragatas, de ahí s nombre.

Very nice tour, good value for the price, knowledgeable guide & excellent sights & sites.
Excellent tour, by far the best team in San Cristobal. If this is your first time in diving I recommend it 100%
¡Muchísimas gracias, Rodrigo! 🙌 Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste la experiencia y que te sentiste bien acompañado por nuestro equipo. Justamente trabajamos para que cada tour, especialmente para quienes hacen diving por primera vez, sea seguro, bien guiado y memorable. Esperamos verte nuevamente en San Cristóbal para seguir explorando juntos 🤿🌊
Amazing experience. The crew and guide were awesome! Boat was great as well as the food and kicker rock was amazing
Do not book with this tour operator!! They stole my money. Terrible customer service never responded to my messages. The customer is always right not with viator another terrible company. Horrible customer service.
Jorge, We’re truly sorry that you feel disappointed with your experience. However, we would like to clarify what happened from our side. Your booking was made for a Kicker Rock tour departing from San Cristóbal Island, but you were staying on a different island. You contacted us only a few days before the scheduled trip to cancel. As is clearly stated in the tour conditions, last-minute cancellations are non-refundable. In Galápagos we must secure boat spaces, crew, permits and park fees well in advance. When someone cancels so close to the date, it is very difficult – often impossible – to resell those spaces, which is a serious loss not only for our small agency but also for the local boat operator and staff who depend on this income. We never intend for anyone to feel that their money has been “stolen”; we simply have to apply the same policy fairly to all guests. If you would like to review the details of your booking or our correspondence, please contact us directly through Viator and we’ll be happy to go over everything with you.
Amazing trip! There were 30-40 hammerhead sharks along with white tips. The crew was amazing and this is a must do while on San Christobal
OMG, this was the best day ever! So much to see, delicious lunch provided and the snorkeling and what you saw fantastic! Great da, great people!
The Split Rock known as The Sleeping Lion is impressive but it is even more impressive to snorkel around it surrounded by turtles, sea lions and swimming over hammerhead sharks. It is recommended to wear a wetsuit because the water is 21-23 degrees. The waters are not as crystal clear as one would like but the amount of incredible colorful fish is well worth it. The boats that transport you are required to carry a biologist who helps you and explains the dive.
The place is amazing, the crew members, the guide, the spectacular food, everything was perfect, we were lucky enough to see many dolphins what followed us, we saw sharks, many turtles and some fish, the visibility was a little low, by the currents and time of year, but still something unique.
Great value. Dive master was very attentive and safety conscious. Excellent team to assist in donning and checking gear. 2 dives. We had a group of 6. Saw schools of fish, hundreds. School of hammerheads (30-40), giant turtles, seals, tiger fish galore. Worth the time and money.
Although the tour was nice, they called me less than 24 hours from my trip and tried to cancel on me because apparently a bunch of people who signed up decided not to go. I had to tell that how unprofessional that was. So although they did fix the issue and find a tour for me, to even think that was acceptable in the first place is wrong. They tried to blame it on the boat company. If they could fix the issue after I complained, why not fix the issue before even messaging me trying to cancel?? The issue could have been fixed they just didn’t think it was important to fix it until I told them it was unacceptable. Sophia was great though. Maybe if you have a bigger group and are not solo, you will not run into the same issues as me.
