Frigatebirds in Galapagos Islands 2026
Genovesa and Cristobal are two magnificent islands where you can meet the extravagant frigate birds
Best time: March–April
Frigate birds are usually best observed on the Genovesa and San Cristóbal Islands. The mating season can be witnessed in March-April, which includes a very interesting ritual as the male attracts the female by inflating his red gular sac - the whole process is really funny.
