When is the best time to Sail to Santa Cruz and the Galapagos Islands?

While expert sources maintain that there really is no bad season for a cruise to the Galapagos Islands, some months are still Santa Cruz on Galapgos Islands cruises

considered better than others. Because the Galapagos Islands literally straddle the Equator, there are only two seasons... dry season and wet season. -And unlike most locations in the world, wet season is actually preferable to dry. The rains are generally short lived afternoon cloud bursts, and then the sky becomes robin's egg blue.

Transition zones between seasons (April through June, and November through January) are the very best times to visit Santa Cruz and other Galapagos Island ports because this is when the migratory birds, the marine iguanas, the albatrosses, and the sea lions are most active. Also, these are best times for snorkeling because the water's warmer. The prime month to see Santa Cruz is May, and the worst time to cruise to the Galapagos Islands can be in August and September. In late summer and fall, the ocean tends to become choppy, there are more sea surges, and shore excursions are more likely to be canceled as a result. Cruise lines keep safety paramount, so don't be surprised if your cheaper fare in late summer turns out to be only a good deal on paper! "Buyer Beware" is a great rule of thumb, and for most of us, those shore excursions on cruises to the Galapagos Islands are the priority.

Prices tend to be highest in December, which lies squarely in the transition period between Dry and Wet season, and is a holiday month as well.
