Descrizione
Discover Playa El Garrapatero, a hidden gem in Santa Cruz. Relax on the beach, swim in crystal-clear waters, and enjoy the serene surroundings of this untouched paradise.
Discover Playa El Garrapatero, a hidden paradise in Santa Cruz, Galápagos. Located about 19 km northeast of Puerto Ayora, this natural gem combines crystal-clear waters, white sand, and a tranquil setting surrounded by endemic vegetation. This uncrowded spot is perfect for those seeking to relax in nature and enjoy an authentic and serene landscape.
Access is easy via a short trail from the parking area, making it an excellent option for families, couples, or independent travelers. The coastal environment is framed by mangroves, cacti, and manzanillo trees (caution: they are toxic), and it’s common to observe birds like flamingos, finches, and whimbrels, as well as marine iguanas resting on the rocks.
In its calm waters, you can swim, snorkel, and, with luck, spot rays and sea turtles. It’s an ideal place to enjoy a beach day with a picnic, although it’s important to bring provisions and remember that leaving trash or feeding the local wildlife is not allowed.
El Garrapatero is a perfect showcase of the untouched beauty of the Galápagos: pure nature, silence, biodiversity, and peace.
