It rained for several days, which put a damper on the vacation. The climate is pleasant for various types of outdoor activities.
lisaSpent 2 weeks in the galapagos, one time a big shower but otherwise it was lovely. It didn't cool down tremendously then so it stayed nice, really a tropical shower. The water was great for swimming. After the rainstorm the water was a little less clear but other than that it was clear water.
