The pick-up will be at 6.15am and we will take you to the Itabaca Canal to board the yacht. The trip to Bartolomé will last approximately 2.5 hours. Bartolomé has the most beautiful and photographed landscapes of the archipelago. The path is made of wood and you will have to climb to the top of this inactive volcano. From there, you will be surprised with this spectacular landscape and, after reaching the top of the wooden stairs, you will feel that it has been worthwhile. The main attraction of the island is the Pinnacle Rock. It is a great lava formation that time has been eroding. Bartolomé has two beautiful half-moon beaches with golden sands that invite you to sunbathe or snorkel around the lava formations. Do not be surprised if you discover Galapagos penguins or sea turtles swimming in the shallows.
