Puerto Ayora (Academy Bay) - Water

Select your download option below


Water is not very good quality but is more plentiful in the first four months of the year when enough rainwater can be collected. Larger quantities of water can be ordered from the local desalination plant in Puerto Ayora, which will deliver it by tanker to the dock, where at high tide a boat can back up close enough to reach the tanker with a long hose. Water from the desalination plant should be ordered from the INGALA office in Avenida Padre Julio Herrera, open 07:30-12:30 and 13:30-16:30 Monday to Friday.

Otherwise, the water has to be transferred by jerrycan. Water is also available at Baltra.

    Important information for all cruisers who are planning to visit Galapagos Islands: when choosing the agent never ever go for Ronny Sanches, Tironne S.A. We have a very bad experience in March 2018, our passports as well as boat passport was stolen from his office and he even didn’t inform us about that immediately. His phone numbers and office address are wrong in his business card and it was very difficult to cooperate with him.

      in fact we traveled in the month of October, and that agent took care of us perfect, besides that we saved budget, unlike other local agents of galapagos.
