The following chart gives temperature averages and details for the Galapagos Islands throughout the year, so that you can better plan your Galapagos vacation.

As it is difficult to buy things on the islands, you should not count on being able to buy things there. Especially bring enough films and batteries for your camera because on the islands they are more expensive and the films are often not a very good quality. Do not forget your camera, you will really regret it!

Useful are also insect repellant, a travel alarm clock, binoculars, flashlight..
For snorkeling we reccommend to bring a wet suit. It can be rented on board.

We advise you to bring comfortable breathable clothes, shorts, T-shirts, swimsuits and good hiking shoes are required to walk over the lava rock paths.
Comfortable, casual clothing is recommended aboard the ship. We prefer that Jeans, shorts, T-shirts, or tennis shoes are not worn for dinner. 

For shore excursions comfortable clothing is a must, preferably shorts, bathing suits, head covering, sun screen, walking shoes, tennis shoes, windbreaker type jacket, binoculars, water bottle, camera and plenty of film.

Most people are not affected but there may occur rough sea or the constant motion of the ship might bother you. So if you are prone to seasickness you should take some medication, just in case.

Any expenses on board can be paid by Credit Card: Diners - Visa - master card and American Express can be used.

What is the currency in Galapagos?
The currency in Galapagos is the same as that of mainland Ecuador: the US Dollar

The M/C Galapagos Journey I and II are a very spacious yachts with larger than average inside and out social areas. She features lots of open deck space allowing guests to make the most of the natural wonders of the Galapagos Islands.



Each guest can enjoy well furnished areas offering creature comforts and privacy. She only carries 16 passengers allowing for intimacy and camaraderie at the same time. We have ample resting areas for those who might be tired after snorkeling, kayaking, or swimming, or if you just want a quiet place to relax with your family and friends in that lazy mid afternoon.
If you want to try out gorgeous views with your shipmates, try our sundecks that we have to offer. Whether you fell like getting a little sun on your vacation, or you want the best place to enjoy the gorgeous sunsets of the Islands, our sundecks are a splendid option for both.



For those of you with a thirst for knowledge, you can always look in the book nook for a few books on the Islands for whatever you might like to know and learn about.
We also offer a small TV room with a flat screen monitor and DVD player in case you might like a movie night with your family while on board.
And now for you adults who might want to relax, kick back, and maybe spend just a little time away from the kids, we offer a great bar and lounge area where you will be provided with a bartender for all your wants and needs while relaxing.
