The best time to visit El Cascajo, and the Galápagos Islands in general, is during the warm and wet season, which runs from December to May.

During these months, the weather is typically sunny with occasional short, heavy showers, and the seas are calmer, making for more comfortable boat excursions and snorkelling. The water temperatures are also warmer, which is ideal for swimming and exploring the marine life. This period is particularly good for seeing land birds nesting and marine iguanas breeding.

For those keen on spotting specific wildlife, the months of April and May are excellent. You'll find many species breeding and nesting, and the lush greenery from the rains makes the islands especially scenic. It's a great time for photography and wildlife observation, offering a truly great experience.

If you prefer slightly cooler temperatures and don't mind choppier seas, the cool and dry season from June to November also has its advantages, with more active marine life and opportunities to see species like humpback whales.
