What to do and see in San Cristobal, Galapagos Islands: The Best Things to do Adventurous

March 21, 2022 Darwin Bolte

Ages ago, a few volcanoes got together and decided to form an island. Gorgeous San Cristobal is a jewel of the Galapagos, where plump sea lions sun themselves on coral beaches and hermit crabs scuttle along peaceful lagoons. Snorkel or dive at Kicker Rock to explore the intricate remains of a lava cone, spot beautiful wildlife along the walking trails to aptly-named Frigatebird Hill, or frolic—slowly—with the legendarily large tortoises at the Galapaguera de Cerro Colorado nature preserve.

Kicker Rock

Reviewed By NilsEling - Zurich, Switzerland

We got lucky on the day and saw 20 hammerheads, 6 Eagle rays, a bunch of reef and Galapagos sharks, and countless turtles. The divers on the other hand didn't see anything. So it depends on the conditions what you're going to see.

Punta Pitt

Reviewed By fizzy1991 - Nashville, United States

This peninsula is on the north shore of San Cristobal Island. Made from two volcanoes with lava flows down to a pristine beach. From the beach there is a long walk after a steep path that runs through black lava rocks. The peaks and valley's are an interesting geological marvel. Wear very good shoes for this hike!
