A totally new concept in the Galapagos Islands; a high end, contemporary style property with all the benefits of a boat based holiday. Take guided excursions on a high end spacious boat with private cabins, but at night return to the stylish and spacious comforts of Pikaia Lodge to sleep in a full size bed on solid land.
Centrally located in the Galapagos archipelago, Santa Cruz island offers the perfect spot to base yourself to explore a wide selection of islands, beaches and wildlife. The lodge offers a similar programme to boat based trips with fixed, fully guided excursions, including sea kayaking, snorkelling and guided walks.
