The day excursion to Española Island is considered one of the best things to do in the Galapagos. In the past, exploring this special area of the Galapagos National Park was only possible for those on liveaboard cruises. However, since 2021, it's now possible to take a day trip from San Cristobal Island and witness the distinctive animal life along the path that begins at the Punta Suarez landing spot.
