The #1 Place Everyone Should Visit in February at Least Once
Imagine sitting on the beach, watching a baby sea lion pup cuddle with its momma while a red-pouched frigate bird or blue-footed booby flies overhead. In other words, it’s time to move the Galapagos Islands off your bucket-list and onto your 2025 travel calendar. November through June offers warm temperatures and plenty of opportunities to see baby sea lions. A Galapagos adventure puts you in one of the most unique marine environments in the world—teeming with sea lions, marine iguanas, giant Galápagos tortoise, Galapagos penguins, and nearly 200 unique species and 26 endemic native birds.

Ecoventura expeditions are among the best in the industry with three Relais & Châteaux yachts, the Origin, Theory & Evolve. Days are spent alongside naturalists, exploring the islands or snorkeling and kayaking among the sea lions and manta rays, while evenings are reserved for fine dining, stargazing, sharing tales of adventure.Each yacht hosts just 20 guests, yet boasts a staff of 13, including two naturalists. Returning to the yacht after a snorkeling session, don’t be surprised to see the concierge—or even the captain—waiting for you, a tray of decadent hot chocolate in hand. Plan your flights to arrive in Quito, Ecuador a day or two early, which offsets any potential delayed flights. The ILLA Experience Hotel will welcome you with an herbal elixir and traditional food experiences. On the heels of your Galapagos expedition, add on a detour to the rainforest enveloped Mashpi Lodge, where sky-bikes, waterfalls, a dragon-fly gondola and over 400 species of birds await.Related: How To Sleep on a Plane: 3 Unexpected Tips, According to Getaway Gurus
