You
don't even have to go far from your hotel, as just a relaxing walk
within the grounds can be a revealing introduction to the outstanding
variety of Darwin's Finches, famed for their role in Darwin's evolutionary
theory. The world-renowned Charles Darwin Research Station, with the
famous giant Galapagos tortoises after which the islands are named,
is only a short distance away. Naturalist-led day cruises to nearby
islands showcase more of this evolutionary paradise. Spend a full week as you combine relaxation at the Finch Bay Hotel, the only hotel by the beach in Santa Cruz Island, with action-packed days as you thoroughly explore this |
| paradise at your own pace and mood. Shorter hotel packages are available. This is also the perfect venue to complement your Galápagos Cruise Expedition with a pre or post cruise land stay in the islands. |

| At the Finch Bay Hotel you will truly experience a place of superb natural beauty and intimate connection with nature like the Galapagos. At dusk, the orange colored skies are the backdrop for thousands of cattle egrets that fly overhead on their way from the highlands of Santa Cruz Island to their nesting area in the mangroves at the back of the hotel. Blue footed boobies and brown pelicans plunge into the ocean looking for their last bite before retiring for the night, while the night herons awaken and emerge from the mangroves to look for food along the beach. |
