Half day tour expeditions boats
Fishing and snorkeling
This excursion is designed to offer guided coastal fishing and snorkeling tour experiences around Santa Cruz island.
These boats will take a maximum of eight Pikaia Lodge guests on half-day tours, where Galapagos fishermen share their traditional fishing techniques.
Please note, this excursion is an extra activity charged separately.
Experiential fishing
Using the trolling method, they can catch-and-release, or choose one fish to take back to the Lodge to be freshly prepared by our chefs.
After fishing, guests can swim, snorkel and relax in lagoons and beaches. These spectacular and pristine sites are full of marine life, rarely visited by tourists.
Sustainable alternative
This new fishing-snorkeling tourism model has been recently approved and promoted by the Galapagos National Park as a sustainable economic alternative for local fishermen.
Our Support
Pikaia Lodge supports this sustainable initiative and has worked with local fishermen to incorporate them into its Santa Cruz Island exploration programs.
Equipped boats
These boats are especially equipped for the comfort and safety of our guests.
The crew consists of local fishermen, whom we have trained for operating to our standards.

The M/Y Galapagos Aggressor III
Dive into the wildest marine safari on Earth
For advanced divers, cruise and experience the marine wonders of the Galapagos Islands.
The Galapagos Islands' surrounding waters are one of the seven underwater wonders of the world. It is the second largest protected Marine Reserve in the world, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site and the greatest protected shark sanctuary in the world's oceans.
A 105 ft oceangoing Galapagos Aggressor III is considered today one of the finest dive yachts in the world.
It was custom designed and is constantly renovated and improved with the latest state-of-the-art equipment to deliver the most comfortable and safest liveaboard dive experience to its guests.
Galapagos offers some of the most challenging and spectacular dive experiences.
Divers encounter many large pelagic species including whale sharks, schools of hammerhead sharks, sea lions, tuna, dolphins, manta rays, marine iguanas, as well as dense schools of tropical fish and many endemic species found nowhere else in the world. It is the ultimate diver paradise and an underwater photographer's dream.
Please note that some extra experiences are subject to availability and are not carried out by the hotel, nor included in the package price. While we work with well-known and specialized local tour operators, we cannot accept any responsibility for their activities or services.
