Galapagos is an extraordinary destination during all the year, however, June is one of the best moments to visit it. In general, there are two seasons in the islands. The first season is from December to June, and is known as the hot season. The second climatic season starts in June in Galapagos and it ends up in mid-December, and it is known as the dry season.
The best moment to visit the islands is in the transition between both seasons, so June is a good moment. Thanks to the special conditions of these transitions, there are many interesting natural events, related to the fauna.
The dry season, also called ‘garúa season’ is known for its blue skies and drizzle noon. During this season you can see a lot of species on the islands and the sea, such as giant turtles, humpback whales, blue-footed boobies, cormorants, oystercatchers, lava lizards, Galapagos hawks, masked boobies, swallow-tailed bifurcated, seals, lava herons brown noddies, Galapagos penguins, etc. Due to the water temperature during these months, this season is perfect for diving and snorkeling.
Don’t hesitate to come to Galapagos in June, especially if you come from Europe or the United States. This is a great time to start your holidays and discover Galapagos Islands. Besides, this is still a quiet time, as during August the number of tourists increase.
