Galapagos Calendar
OCTOBER
- Lava herons start nesting until March
- The Galapagos Fur Sea lions begin their mating period
- Blue footed boobies raise chicks all over Española and Punta Vicente Roca (Isabela)
- Giant tortoises are still laying eggs
- Garúa, the colder, foggy weather front, can be expected in most locations, except the western islands where most days have a misty start but after few hours of daylight it burns off. Days are not always sunny.
- Sunrises in the west can be quite beautiful after the garúa covers only certain locations of the western volcanoes.
- Summits are clear, but low-lying fog covers the shoreline.
