Excursion d'une demi-journée à Tintoreras au départ de l'île Isabela
Description
"Las Tintoreras", un groupe de petits îlots pleins de criques et de plages cachées. L'îlot de Tintoreras est situé au sud de Puerto Villamil. Il possède une baie où il est possible d'observer des otaries, des tortues marines, des iguanes marins, des raies pastenagues, etc. Cette baie est reliée à une fissure superficielle d'eaux cristallines qui se ferme lorsque la marée est basse. Dans cette fissure, il est possible de voir des requins à pointe blanche nager avec le reste des poissons tropicaux et des otaries.

Nous avons commencé l'activité à 09h00 ou 14h00 depuis l'île Isabela. De la baie, nous allons à un ensemble d'îlots appelés Tintoreras. Bien connu pour être l'habitat des pingouins et des requins à pointe blanche ! Nous pouvons apercevoir ces oiseaux mignons et avoir de grandes chances de trouver des marins loups le long des côtes. Les autres animaux que nous pouvons observer en entourant les îlots sont : les raies, les tortues de mer, les shakrs de la baie, les poissons rouges, etc. Nous avons apprécié le temps de plongée en apnée à proximité du site, nous observerons des tortues de mer, des lions de mer, un colorant de requin, différents types de raies manta, divers types de poissons, des pingouins des galapagos, etc.). Observation d'oiseaux (fous à pattes bleues et autres oiseaux) Observation à pied d'îlots de formations rocheuses volcaniques.

The group never arrived for our agreed upon pickup location. The company claimed they did but we were there on time and never saw anyone. The trip was scheduled in the afternoon, the morning of, someone from the tour company reached out to confirm the time AND pickup location. We confirmed via whats-app and replied letting them know we weren't staying at that hotel (we were staying at the neighboring hotel) but we would be in the lobby at the start of the pickup window. The window comes and goes and we reached out to the company with no reply, still have not received one to this day. The boat group claimed they looked for us but we never saw them in the lobby. Even if we were late, (which we were not) leaving before the agreed upon window and without making an attempt to contact the customer is not appropriate. The company never attempted to make a refund or rebook us for their error.
Dear customer we were in the meeting point and in the time we told you but you went by yourself before we plan the pick up and you did not appear. It is not our fault you went to the meeting point before the time we told you. I recommend putting the nam of the hotel your are staying to plan the pick up not another hotel.
Excellent tour. We got to see eagle rays, white tip sharks and great view of blue footed boobies. The surprise was a group of Galápagos sharks. The snorkeling was little average but that is just luck. would recommend going in the morning for this tour instead of the afternoon that we did. The guide was excellent with lot of knowledge on the local flora, fauna and landscape.
A quick, whistlestop tour of the inlet with a fabulous guide, captain and assistant. We saw so many sealions, turtles, iguanas and blue footed boobies! Its like being in a wildlife documentary! There is time to snorkle for a bit too. A nice, compact tour after a hectic, tiring few days
Dear customer thanks for sharing your experiences in our tour , we hope to see you again, Best regard,
This tour was fantastic - we were able to see and learn about the wildlife on land and in the water. I would suggest doing this tour in the morning/low tides as visibility was pretty bad once we finally got into the water to snorkel. Still a great tour!
Thanks for sharing your opinion about your experiences, we appreciate that so much, have a good day
The boat ride and the snorkeling spots were terrific too bad it was a drizzling and overcast that day. We saw do many sea turtles that we swam with and even a large sea horse. There were sea lions including fur sea lion, blue footed boobies, and a couple of cute penguins. This area is so cool and raw nature with all the volcanic underwater bridges - looks like it was just created out of primordial ooze.
Thanks so much for this comment we are so happy you enjoy this trip. Thanks again
AmaZing experience! We loved it! Kids had a great time! It’s not a “half day” tour- more like 2 1/2 hours. We would have liked more time to snorkel, but it is fantastic! Great guide!
Thanks for your comment, we are so happy you enjoyed the excursion. Best regards,
