WELCOME TO PIKAIA LODGE

Not one for a traditional cruise? Pikaia Lodge is the best land-based way to explore one of the most bio-diverse areas on the planet.

Nestled atop an extinct volcano on Santa Cruz Island, Pikaia Lodge is located in the centre of the Galapagos Archipelago.

The Lodge is one of the most stunning viewpoints in the National Park. Secluded in Santa Cruz’s highlands, the suites’ floor-to-ceiling windows look out towards the lush cloud forest and deep blue Pacific Ocean.

When
to Travel

December to May

The Galapagos Islands can be visited year-round due to their equatorial location. But the best time to visit is generally from December to May, when the weather is warmer and the seas are calmer, making it ideal for snorkelling and wildlife watching. The cooler, dryer season from June to November is also great for spotting wildlife.
