Start the new year with intention and wellness in mind by embarking on one of Ecoventura’s “Wellness Inspired” departures in the Galapagos Islands. This unique experience blends rejuvenation with exploration, offering the perfect opportunity to reconnect with yourself while surrounded by nature’s untouched beauty.
The Galapagos is more than just a travel destination; it’s a place that promotes longevity and mental wellbeing. Backed by Blue-Zone principles like purpose, community, and natural movement, spending time outdoors in the Galapagos can help boost mental health. Ecoventura has thoughtfully curated wellness activities to enhance your experience, from guided shore hikes to underwater excursions, designed to nourish the mind, body, and spirit.

Holistic Wellness Experiences
Each day, you can partake in wellness-inspired activities (optional, of course) to help you recharge and relax. Take a morning hike with like-minded guests, or experience the grounding effects of walking barefoot on soft, sandy beaches. When snorkeling, enjoy the peace of the underwater world, watching sea lions glide gracefully around you. Return to the yacht for healthy meals, a soothing soak in the hot tub, or a cold plunge to invigorate your senses.
A digital detox is encouraged at appropriate times, allowing you to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with the calming energy of the islands. In the evenings, decompress with a rainfall shower offering an ocean-view, or unwind during star-gazing sessions. Silence is golden, and taking time to reflect can reduce stress and boost creativity.
