What you can expect

Begin your adventure with a visit to Playa de los Alemanes, a small and peaceful beach known for its calm waters and beautiful coastal scenery. Relax, enjoy the ocean views, or take a refreshing swim in this tranquil spot.

Next, head to the Salt Mines, a historic site that reflects part of the island’s past. Surrounded by a unique volcanic landscape, this area once served as a place where salt was naturally extracted, offering a glimpse into the early history and human presence in the Galápagos.

Conclude your tour at Las Grietas, one of the most spectacular natural swimming spots on Santa Cruz. Formed by volcanic rock formations, this narrow canyon is filled with incredibly clear turquoise water, creating a stunning natural pool between towering lava walls. Swim, relax, and explore this hidden natural wonder.
