Discover the best time to visit Galapagos, seasonal wildlife, and travel tips from a naturalist guide with over 30 years of experience after COVID.
🌿 Best Time to Visit Galapagos After COVID
This article explains the best time to visit Galapagos after COVID, based on my experience as a naturalist guide for more than 30 years. Each season offers unique wildlife, landscapes, and ocean conditions for travelers.
🚤 The First Year After COVID
When tourism returned, people prepared to welcome visitors again. Many boats needed repairs after sitting unused for two years. Tour operators had to reconnect with former workers or train new staff. Money was limited, but hope was strong.
That first full year became a time of discovery. Nature had time to breathe. Wildlife flourished, and every sea lion, bird, reptile, and plant reminded us why Galapagos is so special.
☀️ High and Low Seasons in Galapagos
High season remains strong from December to March, although some weeks are quieter now.
May is still low season and one of the most beautiful months. It combines green landscapes, light rain, and calm seas—perfect for relaxed travel and snorkeling.
🐋 Best Months for Wildlife and Marine Life
June brings fresh air and cooler waters, along with the arrival of whales.
From July to November, marine life is at its best. Divers and snorkelers enjoy encounters with manta rays, sharks, turtles, and colorful fish. Seas can be choppy in some areas, but the rewards are unforgettable.
💙 Why Every Season in Galapagos Is Special
After more than three decades guiding in Galapagos, I believe every season has its magic. This unique ecosystem teaches resilience, balance, and respect for nature.
Each visitor arrives with curiosity and wonder—and that is what keeps this place alive.
