A walk on Bartholomew

What you need to know about A walk on Bartholomew, Galápagos

Bartholomew is the most popular place to visit in Galápagos. Its unreal landscapes and panoramic views are the most photographed spots in the Island. Just off the coast of Bartholomew is the tall, pointed feature known as Pinnacle Rock. During World War II, United States pilots practiced on the rugged Bartholomew Island. 

By climbing to the volcanic summits you can take a picture with the Pinnacle Rock in the background and with stunning views. In the Island there is not much wildlife or vegetation, however, you will be pleased to watch some lava lizards and other insects as well as marine life. Bartholomew is ideal for underwater activities since its wildlife will leave you amazed. 

Here, you can snorkel with playful Galapágo’s penguins and sea lions as well as sharks, rays, fish and octopi. As it happens, not all people want to snorkel, so the beaches are perfect for just laying in the sun or taking a dive in! Bring your cameras. You won’t regret this experience!
