About This Trip
Naturalist Journeys leads small-group birding cruises through the Galapagos aboard first-class 16-passenger catamarans, combining the premier birding sites of the central and southern islands with expert natural history interpretation. The itinerary targets Blue-footed, Nazca, and Red-footed Boobies at close range, Magnificent and Great Frigatebirds in courtship display, Galapagos Penguins swimming beside the boat, and the imposing Flightless Cormorant on Fernandina. Open-ocean passages offer reliable views of Galapagos Petrel, Brown Noddy, and Elliot's Storm-Petrel against the volcanic backdrop of this extraordinary archipelago.
