Upon leaving the main dock at San Cristobal Island, this tour involves 5 stops (not the same as disembarking!), in the following order:

Snorkeling in Bahia Rosa Blanca

Snorkeling in Bahia Rosa Blanca among the top 5

Rosa Blanca is a small bay situated on the northeast of San Cristobal Island. It’s known for its various small beaches, the main attraction being the largest beach in the centre of the bay that is lined with sand dunes. The unique combination of these dunes and the bay’s crystalline waters make Rosa Blanca an attractive destination for visitors. Visitors can also snorkel in the bay, experiencing sea life including sharks, rays and sea turtles.

Punta Pitt is a short stop for lunch and a demonstration of local, traditional fishing. We do not disembark here, but can appreciate the otherworldly landscape nearby and watch for various endemic bird species, like the Red-footed Booby.

Snorkeling time in Bahia Rosa Blanca is among my tops

Snorkeling in Bahia Rosa Blanca on San Cristobal Island

Bahía Sardina comprises two beaches – the draw being their small, white-sand dunes beside the crystalline water, which is perfect for snorkeling. You’ll have a chance to observe (and swim with) sea turtles, rays and sea lions.

We’ll pass by Cerro Brujo , which translates to “Witch’s Hill”, on the way to Kicker Rock, which is characterized by its large rock faces, and where you’ll have the chance to snap photos and observe the birdlife that lives on the rocks.

Sardina Bay beach time and relaxation

Sardine Bay in San Cristobal Galapagos

Roca León Dormido, also know as “Kicker Rock” in English, is an uninhabited islet 30 minutes away from the main dock on San Cristobal. It looks like a large rock formation just off the main island, but is, technically, an eroded cone of volcanic tuff (ash). It reaches up to a height of 148 meters (486 feet)! Kicker Rock is also a refuge for marine birds like the Blue-footed Booby and sea lions. The waters surrounding the island are home to numerous fish species, hammerhead sharks, sea turtles, and rays.

Best tour we did in the Galápagos by far! On the second day on the island we had already seen so much marine life and had a blast doing so. The tour guide was amazing! We talked to many people on San Cristóbal, Isabela and Santa Cruz, and we all agreed that this tour is the best thing you can do. The process of booking it was made very easy and simple thanks to Choko, everything was ready in advance which puts you at ease when you have to take care of hundreds of things when traveling.

The tour 360 on San Cristóbal was a really nice experience, we had the chance to enjoy an amazing beach at Rosa Blanca and we’re lucky to swim with hammerhead sharks at Kicker Rock during our 45 min stop. The guide was very professional and even provided us nice photos from deep ocean. This is one trip that we really recommend while visiting San Cristóbal

It was a pleasure to book our 360 degree tour via ChokoTrip. Booking went smoothly and there were no issues when we arrived in San Cristobal regarding our booking. It was a great trip which we will remember. ChokoTrip is a reliable platform for booking.

Definite a must do on San Cristobal. kicker Rock was awesome and saw hammerheads. Make this a morning stop. Excellent beaches and snorkeled with so many turtles. Choko and his team were excellent as always setting things up. Will definitely use them again.

El Tour de 360 °.en San Cristóbal, fué mi primer Tour en Galápagos. Y también mi primer snorkel. El Tour fué precioso ,y me sentí muy segura haciendo mi primer snorkel con el guía, muy profesional . Vimos tortugas nadando al lado ,rayas más en profundidad y hasta un tiburón martillo al fondo . El guía sacó fotos estupendas con su Gopro ,y nos las dieron gratuitamente una vez terminado el Tour .Un detallazo!! En la excursión visitamos también playas preciosas ,donde nos bañamos con lobitos marinos ,que jugaban alrededor. Con tortugas marinas nadando a nuestro lado . O simplemente contemplar el paisaje maravilloso, mientras veías pescar a los albatros , dormitar los lobos marinos …..Siempre había algo que ver. La excursión fué muy completa , y es muy recomendable. El guía muy profesional y simpático.

See my post on Los Tuneles for more insight into our trip.

Pros and cons for this 360 Tour are as follows. PRO: 1) Amazing wildlife. The beaches are so remote with limited visitors so its definitely one of kind experience. 2) our guide was amazing. He was well informed, enthusiastic, personable and open to have conversation, spoke English very well. 3) Galapagos Eco was very friendly and helpful. 4) Kicker Rock was definitely the highlight. I jumped out solo on this one. Wife and kids stayed on the boat. Best decision given the extent of the swim in open ocean around a pretty big rock! CON: 1) its a LONG time in the boat to get out of the boat only 3 spots. I wish they added more stops to break the long trip. We did slow down in x2 other spots but these were drive-by’s.

The 360 tour was amazing! I recommend it to everyone with a packed schedule who wants to glimpse San Cristóbal Island. All crew were so kind and offered us snacks every time, I didn’t stay hungry during the day. We were able to fish a tuna and we ate sashimi, it was my first time trying it! During the snorkeling activity, I was lucky to see sharks, sting rays, and sea lions!!

Four older women travelled to San Cristobal on an Exoticca Tour of Ecuador. We had a free day on the island and I looked for something worthwhile to do. I decided on the 360 Tour offered by Choko. Our trip to Ecuador ended up being postponed due to Hurricane Ian in the fall of 2022. We rescheduled for February ‘23. and paid in full. I was worried about having done this, but it all worked beautifully. We had a gorgeous day & got to see so many interesting places and animals. Kicker Rock was teeming with life! I was disappointed that we weren’t able to fish for our lunch, but otherwise, the experience was excellent. The crew did an wonderful job keeping us hydrated throughout. Our only complaint was that our naturalist guide was somewhat gruff about one of my friend’s asthma condition. All in all a glorious day!

Great 360 Tour. We saw a pod of Orcas interacting with a Sea Lion. Didn’t end well for the Sea Lion, but was spectacular to watch. Kicker Rock was fun with sharks, fish, tortoises and beautiful scenery. Galapagos Eco Fishing (tour operator) was great and provided us with some amazing footage of our day – both in and out of the water.

My friends and I did the 360 tour on San Cristobal and booked in advance, we were a little worried about paying in advance but everything went quite smoothly. The tour was awesome and we saw a lot of things in one day, we were supposed to do an English tour but our guide spoke barely any….BUT that being said he was our favourite guide of the whole 6 days. Super patient and kind and we had a lot of fun. He was also patient with my fear of snorkelling and making sure to go with me so I definitely recommend.

360 tour: awesome tour, in kicker rock we had the luck to see thousands of fishes because there were a lot of plancton coming from a sea current. We did the 360 tour other way around and it was better because the snorkel at kicker rock was much colder than the other one. We advise again 2 wetsuit to proper enjoy the snorkel. The second snorkel was great as well because we had the chance to see again other turtles, rays and a lot of white reef sharks resting in the water. The food and the guide were great so we totally recommend doing this tour.

After booking, I was unable to go on the tour myself, but my friend did go and he loved it. He would absolutely recommended this tour to others.

Also, as I notified Choko ahead of time that I would be unable to make it, they were able to fill my spot with someone else, and they gave me back a full refund. I am very appreciative of that.

The 360 tour was wonderful. I highly recommend, especially if you’re only in San Cristobal for a short time, like we were. It gives a good overview of the island, while snorkeling and stopping at some awesome beach spots. I particularly enjoyed seeing the sea lions up close on the beach.

our 360 tour was amazing. We didn’t see any hammerheads because it is not hammerhead season, but it was still worth it to snorkel at kicker rock. We saw sharks and turtles and had a great time. Our guide was wonderful, helping my husband who is still getting used to being in the water and snorkeling. He was patient and so super helpful and understanding.

Absolutely a MUST do tour! We stopped in San Cristobal for 2 nights just to do this tour. I chose this based on all the positive reviews and they were all right! We got to fish for our lunch right off the boat. Caught a big Wahoo and the chef made sashimi with it. The tour was fantastic. We had an English speaking naturalist who was extremely informative. Lots and Lots of fun. I would NOT recommend this tour for younger kids. The snorkeling can be a bit rough but worth it. The water is also a bit chilly. This tour is great for kids age 12-13 and older.I I would also like to add that Choktrip was extremely helpful in planning any activities. We opted not to take the ferry shuttle and to fly to Isabella after San Cristobal and Im really happy with that choice.

The 360 tour was awesome. We had a great guide, boat and itinerary. The price is steep but the same as the other local outfits we were able to see an amazing amount of wildlife.

Awesome trip. Guide was fantastic. Great food. First snorkeling spot was great. Saw sharks turtles stingrays. Then caught a fish on the boat. Stopped at punta pitt for great pics. Another snorkel spot and then kicker rock which is fantastic. Tons of turtles, spotted sting rays. Sea lions. Amazing trip. Definite must on San cristibal.

I had some travel issues in Guayaquil (thank you Delta!) and my flight was moved to next day. I called Choko, he made arrangements last minute and booked me and my family a 360 trip

Fantastic experience, great boat, great bilingual guide and crew. That snorkeling experience in Kicker Rock was the most epic moment during my Galapagos trip!

Fully recommended! Thanks again Choko

The 360 tour is definitely the best way to see San Christobal! The snorkeling was great with very fine equipment provided. We made several stops to swim with sea lions, turtles, hammerhead sharks, reys and too many fish to name. There were also great occasions to see blue footed boobies on the clifs. Thanks to Christian for easy advance booking.

The 360 tour was very interesting. You can enjoy fishing and snorkeling as well as sightseeing by boat. Our experience was wonderful, thanks to the fishing masters on board. We were able to watch a fight between the birds and Sharks aimed at tuna and Wahoo.

Very good organized by choko. Tour itself was ok, snorkeling at Kicker Rock was the best in the Tour.

The best part of this tour was snorkeling near Kicker Rock. Beaches also were very nice. We were happy that Choko took care of reservation so we didn’t waste our vacation time looking for tour operator and tours. Thank you, Christian.

It was very fun. Especially it was so exciting to catch some big fish in trolling. And so we could see a lot of Galapagos sharks to eat fish gut.

The 360 tour was absolutely fantastic. Snorkeling at Kicker Rock was incredible. The bird life at Punta Pitt!! Wow! The snorkeling in the sheltered bay with sharks and hanging out on the most astonishing beaches – amazing. We collected our gear at Galapagos Eco Fishing – everything included. There was lunch, snacks, snorkel gear and our guide took GoPro of all the snorkel dives that we got to download as souvenirs. Working with Choko was a breeze. We connected through WhatsApp. It was great to be able to pay him half on the card so we didn’t have to stress getting so much cash in San Cristobal. 100% recommend this 360 tour, San Cristobal generally and definitely recommend booking through Choko. Enjoy the Galapagos and look after them!

If you only have a short time for Galapagos is this trip perfect for you. In only one day you see more than other people in two or three days. The tour was well organised and really interesting. Second best snorkeling after Los Tunnels on Isabela for me. Choko gives you his phone number and you can call him with any problem. At this moment I want to say thank you again for the help with the tour planning and all other things that can happen. It is every time good to have a local person you can call. I would book my tours with Choko again.

I cannot recommend the 360 tour highly enough, originally we had tried to book the separate kicker rock tour but it wasn’t available on the days we wanted so this was suggested as an alternative. I’m so pleased it worked out this way. We are not experienced snorkellers and for myself the snorkelling at Kicker Rock was a little out of my comfort zone but before that we went to a ocean bay where we saw white tipped reef sharks, sea turtles, sea lions and a variety of Rays this for me was the highlight of the day. Even though the snorkelling at kicker rock wasn’t for me it would be a great opportunity for inexperienced snorkellers who want to see if they want to go further or for those who want to see whether diving would be for them. The welcome we were given when we went to the tour company’s Galapagos Eco Fishing to rent our wetsuits was extremely warm and professional. Our guide Fabricio was extremely knowledgable and it was clear that his main aim was to ensure we enjoyed ourselves. My sister didn’t manage the first snorkelling as she has a minor panic attack, when we went to another bay for some chill out time after lunch Fabricio took time out to introduce her slowly to snorkelling, she has since then managed to completed 3 separate trips and enjoyed Kicker Rock much more than me. A fantastic day.

Testimonial tripadvisor.

It seems to me an incredible islet. Its shape is unique and being able to snorkel around it and swimming through the channels is a fantastic experience. And it looks wonderfully completed with the presence of sea lions or turtles that swim next to you

Impressive underwater experience, an essential stopover on your visit to San Cristóbal, without a doubt the main attraction of the Island

Highly recommended, the guide was super friendly, the staff on the boat were very professional, they always had us water and fruit in case we were low on energy. Very attentive that we all have a very good time.

Key Features

Leon dormido (kicker rock), cerro brujo, sardina bay, rosa blanca bay, description.

It is the second most eastern island of the Archipelago. It is the capital of the Galapagos province, Puerto Baquerizo Moreno . Here is the best shipping port ; as well as one of the two airports in the Galapagos Islands. San Cristobal has a hotel infrastructure, restaurants and bars suitable for enjoying a relaxing trip , in the middle of a natural paradise, where inhospitable landscapes of rugged volcanic rocks coexist with seabeds of extraordinary beauty.

A complete tour of   San Cristóbal Island , visiting beaches, bays and the Leon Dormido. One of the newest tours in the Galapagos Islands is the 360° tour, the idea is to go around San Cristobal Island completely, visiting places like Rosa Blanca, Sardina Bay, Punta Pitt and Cerro Brujo.

Located in the north of San Cristóbal Island. It is one of the most beautiful white sand beaches on the island where you can snorkel (different types of fish, sea turtles and sea turtles) and rest. From the beach you have a good view of the Sleeping Lion and the highlands of San Cristóbal. Behind the beach there are several saltwater lagoons.

It is a set of eroded volcanic cones and presents a scenery of varied colors, due to its different types of lava, as well as its colorful vegetation, typical of xerophytic plants, in addition to its beautiful climate. Thanks to its geographical location Punta Pitt is one of the few places in the Galapagos Islands where you can find all the three species of booby and the two species of frigate.

The word booby refers to clown like feet, this colorful pair call the attention of the tourist but mainly the other bobies, it is a way to show how healthy and well fit they are. The pigments that reflect this blue turquoise color are inclose inside of particular feet cells, when the cells are not complete turgent or immature, the pigment decrease or won't be enough and the color turn pale green. If the cells are weak, the pigment get darker, and the color is dark purple-blue. When the cells are turgents and the pigment well distributed, the result is a bright turquoise which is the best color to breed.

The Galapagos sea lion is widely distributed in the archipelago, however the biggest breeding colonies are located in San Cristobal island. The sea lion population was reduce over 50%. The sea lions can include more than 34 species of fish plus octopus and even squids. The breeding success is estimate one young every two years. The females never share milk or adopt, some pups had been seen waiting for the females to fall asleep to steal milk, something that can put their lives in threat.

Sharks are perhaps one of the most ancient fish in our ocean, among this group they have common characteristics like the aerodynamic scales, very small that is impossible to distinguish to the naked eye, when you touch in the right direction you feel like sandpaper. Other important adaptation is the Lorensini fossetts that allow them to feel electromagnetic fields. This organ is very important and highly dense on the hammerheads front and bottom of the head since most of them are bottom feeders using the head like a metal detector, can discover their preys (rays, flounder and sole fish), in dark and muddy bottoms.

• Duration: The entire day (You have to be at 6:30 am at the agency’s entrance)

HOW TO DO THE 360 TOUR IN SAN CRISTOBAL

To do the 360 Tour in San Cristobal you need to book it with an agency. I chose by recommendation the Galapagos Eco Fishing company.

You have to book and pay for it at least one day before the tour. They usually don’t accept credit or debit cards so you must have cash with you. There are multiple ATMs on the island so don’t worry. 

On the day of the tour just head really early to their store, around 6:30 if I’m not mistaken (they will tell you when you book it) and they will give you your gear. You will have to try the fins and the wetsuits to get your size right. 

After that, you just head to the port, and the tour starts.

The tour is done in two directions to avoid crowds, one starts in Kicker rock (clockwise) and the other in Bahia Rosa Blanca beach (counterclockwise). 

Before you go I recommend you take the tour that starts in Kicker Rock for two reasons:

•  As I was told, hammerhead sharks are more active in the morning so in theory, you’ve more chances to see them if you go earlier. The other tour only reaches Kicker Rock at around 2 pm (We didn’t see any Hammerhead). 
• If you start at Bahia Rosa Blanca beach that’s on the east side of the island it is ALOT rougher to go by boat cause it’s not protected by the island. The waves are big and you need to take a sea-sickness pill. I would say it’s a smoother trip if you have the harsh waves only at the end of the tour and not at the start.

MY EXPERIENCE ON THE 360 TOUR IN SAN CRISTOBAL, GALAPAGOS

This was my fourth day on San Cristobal Island and I did this tour together with two friends of mine in a group of 10 people.

We started the tour and we were told we were going to visit Bahia Rosa Blanca beach first. We soon figured out that means rough seas for one hour.

I advise you to take a sea-sickness pill 30 minutes before you start the tour if you go this way first. Luckily the guide had enough pills for all (yes, it’s a common thing to get sea-sick on this trip).

I also advise you to go on the back of the boat because there at least you have fresh air and you don’t feel so much the bumps from the waves.

visiting the Bahia Rosa Blanca BEach

After all the bumps and humps from the sea, we finally reached the Bahia Rosa Blanca beach. 

To reach the beach you have to leave the speedboat and board a smaller inflatable boat that takes you to shore.  

Once you get to the beach you go through a mangrove path and finally reach the beautiful and photogenic part of the beach.

Unfortunately after a couple of minutes, you start seeing the sad reality of this beach. Even though it’s gorgeous, the sand white and the water turquoise, there is plastic garbage everywhere, usually on the waves-breaking-point on high tide. From broken chairs to bottles, flasks, fishing nets, or even parts of toilets. 

Because our tour was an Ecological one we picked up all the garbage we could and placed it in a higher place where we were told that later get collected by another boat. 

After the beach we went for a small hike around the shore (take at least flip-flops cause the floor is lava). On this walk, we saw some nice lakes surrounded by Opuntia cactuses and we ended up on a lagoon where we snorkeled and saw huge turtles, an eagle ray, many stingrays, reef sharks, and many other small fishes.

Bird watching at punta pitt

After Bahia Rosa Blanca we went on with the tour and before we reached Punta Pitt we had some lunch.

On our tour, they tried to fish some tuna with two fishing poles but were unfortunately not very lucky otherwise we would have eaten some sashimi. 

Without the tuna, they prepared us some fish, chicken, and vegetarian menus, which were quite good.

After lunch, we went on to Punta Pitt and did some birdwatching. We saw some swallow-tailed gulls, some tijeretas/frigatebirds, some blue-footed boobies, and red-footed boobies.

A trick to find blue-footed boobies, look for the white spots on the black rocks. It is their poo. Wherever they stop is usually white as you can see in the photos. 

visiting bahia sardina beach and cerro brujo

After Punta Pitt, which is the easternmost corner of the island the sea stops being so rough and it’s actually a pleasant trip until Bahia Sardina beach and Cerro Brujo.

In Bahia Sardina, we got around 30minutes to snorkel and swim around and those who went to the beach were attacked by horse-flies, a menace in the Galapagos. But still a beautiful beach.

The next stop on the tour was Cerro Brujo, another edge of the island and from here, through a cave it’s possible to see Kicker Rock (Leon Dormido). It’s a highlight and a very beautiful one. 

If you’re lucky on your tour you might end up at Cerro Brujo beach instead of Bahia Sardina or go up to the hill, if I’m not mistaken.

snorkeling in kicker rock (Leon dormido)

And the last stop of the day, Kicker Rock or Leon Dormido in Spanish (sleeping lion, cause on a certain angle the rock resembles a sleeping lion). 

We went snorkeling here but unfortunately, it was already dark inside Kicker Rock’s channel so we couldn’t see hammerhead sharks or any other shark.

Nevertheless, we saw some sea lions chilling on the side. The visibility was also pretty poor, full of plankton.

So again, go on the morning tour, the other group saw hammerheads and manta rays.

And that’s about it after Kicker Rock we went back to Puerto Baquerizo Moreno and the 360 Tour in San Cristobal was over.

What about you, have you already done the 360 Tour in San Cristobal Island?  Leave me a comment down here if you did and after you did it with your impression.

Thanks for reading through and have fun on this tour!

5 thoughts on “360 Tour in San Cristobal”

We like your blogs. Thank you. I went diving on gordon rocks and will do this 360 tour (now 190).

Great to hear that, hope you enjoy the 360 too!

Thank you for this information – super insightful. Do you have any recommendations for tours that go in the opposite direction (visit Kicker Rock first)? I am heading to San Cristóbal in November.

Thank you very much, Maddy

Hey Maddy, you can ask when you book the tour that you want to go on the group that goes first to Kicker Rock. Alternatively if that’s your must see on the island perhaps joining a group of people going there just for diving might be the ideal thing to do. You can just snorkel instead of diving and it costs much cheaper than the scuba-diving option. Here’s an article i wrote about the diving in Kicker Rock. DIVING IN KICKER ROCK

Thank you very much for your help – I will investigate further 🙂

Our Experience at Tour 360º at San Cristobal Island, Galapagos

One of the popular tours that you can do in San Cristobal is the Tour 360º and it is a must-have! The tour, as the name suggests, circumnavigates San Cristobal Island . The Tour 360º cruise circles San Cristóbal Island , stopping at beaches, bays, and the iconic Kicker Rock. This trip is one of my favorite parts of our Galapagos escapade .

Unlike many day trips on tourist-class boats, this journey can be a little rougher at times because the boats with fishing licenses vary a lot in terms of size and stability. By the way, the adventure starts with fishing!

They are not rickety boats, and they are still fairly comfortable for a small party of visitors, but they are not as large as you might anticipate. This is worth mentioning because, during rough, windy weather, this long cruise around San Cristobal can be exhausting for anybody prone to seasickness. The trips go all day, beginning in the early morning and ending well before dusk.

Tour 360 takes you around San Cristóbal in around 5 hours to view the most important sights. This tour includes snorkeling with marine life in the bays of Rosa Blanca and Sardina, as well as a visit to the beautiful Kicker Rock. Each stop will be described briefly below.

This trip begins at the main pier on San Cristobal Island and includes five stops in the following order:

• Rosa Blanca (snorkeling)
• Punta Pitt (photo opportunity)
• Bahía Sardina (snorkeling)
• Punta Pucuna & Cerro Brujo (photo opportunity)
• Kicker Rock (snorkeling)

You can also see how we captured 360 tour in our big video about traveling to the Galapagos Islands:

Rosa Blanca

Rosa Blanca is a tiny bay on San Cristobal Island ‘s northeast coast. It is well-known for its several little beaches, the primary draw is the biggest beach in the bay’s center, which is flanked by sand dunes.

Rosa Blanca is a popular tourist attraction due to the unusual mix of these dunes and the bay’s pristine waters. Visitors may also snorkel in the area and see water life such as sharks, rays, and sea turtles.

We grabbed the opportunity to snorkel and enjoyed the wonderful view of the rich marine life in the Galapagos. Even after a few days of staying in the Galapagos Islands and doing a lot of snorkeling activities, I still never get tired of doing it and discovering the interesting wildlife under the Galapagos waters.

Punta Pitt is a brief lunch break with a demonstration of traditional local fishing. We didn’t disembark here, but we could see the odd topography and check for uncommon bird species like the Red-footed Booby from a distance.

The Galápagos coastline, like many others, is swarming with sea lions. Punta Pitt is the only spot in the Galapagos where you may observe all three kinds of Boobies, as well as the two types of frigates that nest here.

The three booby species cohabit because each has its own domain: Nazca boobies nest along the cliffs, red-footed boobies live among the bushes near the cliffs, and blue-footed boobies nest further inland.

Bahía Sardina

Bahía Sardina offers another chance for visitors to enjoy snorkeling. The appeal of Baha Sardina’s two beaches is their modest, white-sand dunes next to the clear sea, which is ideal for snorkeling. Here, you’ll get to see and swim with some marine turtles, rays, and sea lions. Sardines, octopi, lobsters, langoustines, and mullet are also common.

Punta Pucuna & Cerro Brujo

The sandy beach at Punta Pucuna stands in dramatic contrast to the volcanic scenery directly behind it, with lava cones towering in the backdrop.

From a distance, this spot provides a stunning view of Cerro Brujo and Kicker Rock. The trip will pause in this area so you may snap photos. Then, on a 45-minute trek, you’ll continue exploring the islands.

Kicker Rock or Leon Dormido

Kicker Rock, also known as Leon Dormido by locals, is a deserted islet located 30 minutes from San Cristobal’s main pier. It appears to be a massive rock structure from off the main island, but it is actually an eroded cone of volcanic tuff (ash). It can reach a height of 148 meters (486 feet)! 

Kicker Rock also serves as a haven for marine birds such as the Blue-footed Booby and sea lions. Numerous fish species, hammerhead sharks, sea turtles, and rays may be also found in the seas around the island.

Bottom Line

Keep in mind that this trip visits a lot of destinations and provides a wide range of experiences. However, the length of time you spend at some locations, such as Kicker Rock, may not be as long as you would want. If you are determined to see the “best” of Kicker Rock or Punta Pitt , you could consider planning separate journeys to those locations.

Overall, Tour 360º is one of the best excursions I had. The snorkeling experience is the best one I had in my life! It was a one-of-a-kind experience and I definitely recommend it to everyone planning to visit Galapagos Islands . Make sure to include Tour 360º on your Galapagos bucket list !

About the author.

Oleg Galeev

I'm Oleg, and together with my wife, we've explored Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands, journeying through more than 20 cities ( Quito , Cuenca , Banos , Tena , Puyo , Guayaquil , Riobamba , Otavalo , Mindo and more) and nearly every island in the Galapagos (including iconic ones such as Bartolome Island , San Cristobal Island , Isabela Island , Santa Cruz Island and more). In this blog, I give you my real thoughts about each place we visited. This info can help anyone planning a trip to the Galapagos Islands or mainland Ecuador . I'm just a traveler, not a tour company, so I'm not trying to sell anything. That means I'll tell you the truth—both the good and the bad — about traveling in Ecuador based on what we experienced.

Hello! What tour company did you use for the 360 tour? Thank you!

I bought it at local agency in San Cristobal but my wife and I were lucky to get the last two spots. They tour is quite popular, I know that many people get it in advance online from Viator . You will overpay at about 30% of the cost compared to prices on the island but at least you get a spot. The tours on Galapagos are limited so if you go there high-season, I’d recommend getting it online in advance, unless you spend many days on San Cristobal and you have extra days to take the 360 tour.

TOUR 360 (MONDAY-WEDNESDAY-FRIDAY-SATURDAY-SUNDAY)

MONDAY – FRIDAY - SATURDAY 07:30 AM DEPARTURE / UNTIL 16:30 PM

BAHÍA ROSA BLANCA (SNORKELING AND BEACH) – PUNTA PITT (ONLY FISHING) – SARDINE BAY (BEACH AND SNORKELING) – PUNTA PUCUNA (LAVA ROCK HIKING) – CERRO BRUJO (PANGA RIDE) – KICKER ROCK (SNORKELING)

The tour begins with Rosa Blanca Beach on San Cristóbal, which sits on a small bay with several beaches that are best known for their scenic dunes. On a snorkeling exploration of the area, you might get to see several shark species, rays, and sea turtles.

Next, we set off for Punta Pitt to do some bird watching from the boat. As with many shorelines in the Galápagos, the shore hear is crowded with sea lions. Punta Pitt is the only location in the Galapágos where you can spot all three species of Boobies as well as the two species of frigates that nest here. All three species of booby live in harmony because each has its own territory — the Nazca boobbies nest along the cliffs, while the red-footed boobies live among the bushes that grow near the cliffs, and the blue-footed boobies make their nests farther inland.

After bird watching, you’ll set sail for Sardine Bay to do some more snorkeling. Sardine Bay comprises two beaches, both with crystal clear water that provides a home to all kinds of marine wildlife. Besides the usual rays and sea turtles, you can also expect to see sardines, octopi, lobsters, langoustines, and mullet — to name just a few.

Punta Pucuna’s sandy beach provides the stark contrast to the volcanic landscape just behind the beach, with lava cones rising in the background. This area offers a splendid view of Cerro Brujo and Kicker Rock from a distance. The tour pauses so you have a chance to take some photographs. Then, you’ll continue to explore the islands on a 45-minute hike.

The next leg of the trip bring you two of the most well-known sights around San Cristobál — Cerro Brujo and Kicker Rock. You’ll take a panga ride to boat around a rocky outcrop of Cerro Brujo, which is the remains of a collapsed volcanic tuff. Kicker Rock is another volcanic formation, which first appeared when a sharp spike of lava erupted from below the water’s surface. You’ll notice lots of marine birds perching on the rock before donning your snorkeling gear for an hour-long snorkel.

This snorkeling exploration takes place in the canal next to Kicker Rock. At the opening of the canal, you’ll be in water that’s about 115 feet (35 m) deep and ends at a depth of 39 feet (12 m). While you’re here, you’ll have the chance to see black tip sharks, white tips sharks, Galápagos sharks, hammerhead sharks, eagle rays, sea turtles, and sea lions.

WEDNESDAY – SUNDAY 07:00 AM DEPARTURE / UNTIL 16:00 PM

KICKER ROCK (SNORKELING) - CERRO BRUJO (PANGA RIDE) – PUNTA PUCUNA (LAVA ROCK HIKING) - SARDINE BAY (BEACH AND SNORKELING) – PUNTA PITT (ONLY FISHING) – BAHÍA ROSA BLANCA (SNORKELING, BEACH)

Your tour begins with an unforgettable visit to Kicker Rock. which is located just off the coast of San Cristobal. The main shaft of Kicker Rock juts an impressive 500 feet (152 m) out of the ocean, an explosion of lava from an underwater volcano that’s frozen in time. This is a favorite spot for marine birds and a diverse population of underwater wildlife. To get a better look at this diversity, you’ll go snorkeling in the canal next to Kicker Rock, where you can see black tip sharks, white tip sharks, Galapagos sharks, hammerhead sharks, eagle rays, sea turtles, and sea lions. The depth of the canal varies from 115 feet (35 m) deep to 39 feet (12 m). Next, you’ll visit Cerro Brujo, exploring the borders of this collapsed volcanic cone on a panga ride.

Next up, you’ll continue to Punta Pucuna, a popular fishing spot near San Cristobal. It only takes a short boat ride to reach this small bay’s three beaches. You’ll see Cerro Brujo and Kicker Rock in the distance, so make sure you have your camera ready. While you’re here, you’ll take a 45-minute hike over lava rocks and appreciate more of the view.

After your hike, you’ll make your way to Sardine Bay, which provides a healthy habitat for sardines, octopus, lobsters, langoustines, and mullet. It has two beaches with small white sand dunes that sit next to crystal clear waters — ideal conditions for snorkeling. Take a peek under the waves to meet sea turtles, rays, and sea lions.

The following stop is at one of Galapápagos Islands’ main birdwatching hotspots. At Punta Pitt, you can observe three different species of boobies — blue footed boobies, red-footed boobies, and Nazca boobies — all of which occupy their own little corners of the island. Besides all the birds, you’ll also see plenty of sea lions crowding the shores.

Then, you’ll head back San Cristobal Island to see the bay of Rosa Blanca. This small bay is on the northeast side of the island, just a few minutes from Montones de Arena and Veinte Varas. Rosa Blanca’s main attraction is the big beach that’s surrounded by dunes. Local fishermen come to this area to catch wahoo, butterfish, horse eye jack, mullet and cod. Go snorkeling here to observe shark species, rays, and sea turtles.
