The Galapagos Islands offer an extraordinary underwater world where every dive can reveal encounters with some of the ocean’s most fascinating species. From massive whale sharks and schooling hammerheads to marine iguanas and graceful eagle rays, the Galapagos Marine Reserve is home to an exceptional diversity of marine life.
During the expedition, divers may encounter whale sharks, particularly between June and November around Wolf and Darwin Islands, as well as powerful Galapagos sharks along the archipelago’s volcanic reefs. The waters of Darwin and Wolf are also renowned for spectacular schools of scalloped hammerhead sharks, creating one of the world’s most memorable diving experiences.
