Finch Bay Hotel 3-Night Itinerary B

The 4-day/3-nights "Finch Bay Sea" Tour: This introduction to the enchanted Galapagos Islands can be experienced by a number of activities, including a full-day cruise to a nearby island, land exploring, and by simply relaxing and enjoying the hotel’s privacy, natural surroundings, swimming pool, fine dining and superb service. On the day-cruise, you will board the hotel’s own yacht on a short voyage to a stunning nearby island (either the wildlife-rich North Seymour Island, iconic Bartolome, the wild and rugged South Plaza Island, or beautiful Santa Fe Island). Led by experienced naturalist guides and provided with excellent service, this astonishing sea and land adventure will remain etched in your memory forever. When not on your cruise, you may prefer to go on a land excursion or pursue your favorite outdoor activities around the hotel on Santa Cruz Island. Here, you can take part in sports such as kayaking, scuba diving, biking, and hiking. Then too, you may want to just lie back on the pool’s sun deck and enjoy the incredible hospitality, the Cordon Bleu cuisine and the beachfront view from your hammock. Whatever way ever you choose to enjoy this remarkable archipelago, it's up to your particular tastes and preferences.
