Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Bellavista?
The best area to stay in Bellavista is directly within the town itself, particularly along its main street, as this provides the most convenient access to amenities and the natural surroundings.

Bellavista is a small, quiet town located in the Santa Cruz highlands, known for its cooler climate and lush cloud forest environment. The main street, which is also the road connecting Puerto Ayora to the highlands, is where you'll find most of the local shops, restaurants, and accommodation options. It's a great base for exploring the unique highland ecosystems.

Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will appreciate Bellavista. It offers a relaxed pace away from the busier coastal areas. From here, you can easily access attractions like the lava tunnels and the giant tortoise reserves, often within a short walk or a brief taxi ride.
When is the best time to go to Bellavista?
The best time to go to Bellavista is during the dry season, which runs from June to December.

During these months, the weather is generally cooler and drier, with average temperatures around 20-25°C. This makes it a comfortable time for exploring the highlands and enjoying outdoor activities. The skies are often clear, offering excellent visibility for birdwatching and photography. While there might be occasional light showers, they are usually brief.

Couples looking for an active holiday will find this period ideal for hiking and exploring the Bellavista Cloud Forest Reserve. The drier trails are easier to navigate, and the cooler temperatures make longer walks more pleasant. It's also a fantastic time for wildlife spotting, with many species of birds more active and visible.

For solo travellers seeking a peaceful retreat and a connection with nature, the dry season provides a calm and pleasant environment. The clear mornings are great for enjoying a cup of coffee on a balcony overlooking the cloud forest, and the reduced humidity makes for more comfortable evenings.
