For most travellers, the best time to visit Galápagos is during the warm-wet season, which runs from December to May, or the cool-dry season, from June to November, depending on your preferences. Both seasons offer distinct advantages for experiencing the islands.


The warm-wet season, from December to May, is ideal for those who prefer warmer weather and calmer seas. The air and water temperatures are higher, making it superb for swimming, snorkelling, and diving. This period also brings lush greenery to the islands, and it's a great time for birdwatching as many species are nesting. You'll find excellent visibility for underwater activities and generally smooth sailing between islands, which is particularly good for those prone to seasickness.


The cool-dry season, from June to November, appeals to visitors keen on seeing a wider range of marine life and experiencing more active wildlife encounters on land. While the air and water are cooler, this season is known for its nutrient-rich waters, attracting abundant marine animals like whales, dolphins, and various fish. It's also the peak breeding season for many land animals, offering unique observation opportunities.
