Cuatro Hermanos

Snorkel with the Four Brothers

Cuatro Hermanos is a chain of islands off the coast of Isabela. Like all islands in the Galapagos archipelago, they are volcanic in origin. These islands have been weathered by erosion into random shapes and formations.

The varied formations and mixed ocean currents make for great snorkeling opportunities. Hammerhead sharks, manta rays, and sea turtles are only a few of the diverse residents of this area.

The Cuatro Hermanos islands are restricted, therefore we visit a nearby beach on Isabela to lunch and relax.

"Very well organized and knowledgeable, took the stress part out of the vacation. We told them what we wanted and they put together a well thought out itinerary with recommendations on where to eat and other things to do on our down time."
