What a September cruise is like

September is the coolest month of the cool season. Days are mild and dry, about 17–24 °C (62–76 °F), with cloudy, misty mornings, and the water is around 20 °C (68 °F), so a wetsuit is a must for snorkeling. The sea can still be lively.

What you can see from the yacht in September

Galápagos penguins are very active on the western islands.
Sea lions are at the peak of their breeding season.
Most seabirds are nesting, and the cool, rich water feeds abundant marine life.

For the full picture of the month, the weather and the sea week by week, who it suits and how to pack, read our guide Galápagos in September.

Book your Galápagos flights with us, together with your cruise: many cruise operators ask their guests to fly on the flights they reserve, and we book them at the net fare the operator gives us. We also recommend arriving in Ecuador two days before your Galápagos flight, in case your international flight is delayed or canceled.
