Travel Galapagos Islands & Ecuador

Turtle Bay

A 3km paved trail southwest from Puerto

Ayora takes you to Turtle Bay, a beautiful

white-sand beach good for swimming,

surfing or just sunbathing. A spit of land

provides protection for swimmers (there

are strong currents on the exposed side of

the spit) and you can see sharks, marine

iguanas, pelicans and the occasional flamingo.

There’s no drinking water or other

facilities. It’s about a half-hour walk from

the start of the path – often used by local

runners – where you must sign in (between

6am and 6pm).
