From the Galápagos Islands World / Places

Punta Pitt

Commit to a distant guided excursion if seabird nesting terrain and rugged coastal views justify a steep climb. This northeastern landing demands more effort than San Cristóbal's town-side walks.

Why go

Punta Pitt offers a more demanding walk on San Cristóbal's far northeastern coast. The climb links the sea-lion landing with seabird nesting terrain and views of eroded volcanic hills. Its remoteness and steep ground make it a committed excursion, with the guide setting the pace and route.

What to look for

  • A steep gully leads from the landing to the cliffs
  • Three booby species nest in the wider visitor area

Useful to know

  • Book a guided permitted excursion and expect a strenuous rocky ascent.
  • The distant northeast location is not a short town walk.
