Year Round Destination |
| The Galapagos Archipelago is located on the Equator and its climate is sub-tropical, allowing cruises to operate on a year round basis.
Temperatures are determined almost entirely by the ocean currents that are influenced by the trade winds. Generally, December to
May is warm and sunny; June to November is cool and breezy. Most birds nest year round, so you can see courtship, mating, chicks
hatching and rearing almost any time of the year.
