Kayak to the Galapagos's island?

Question

I am looking for resources and advice for kayaking not around the Galapagos islands but too them via south America.

Answer 1

As it's a severely regulated marine reserve, I would think obtaining permission to enter the area would be very difficult.

Typical visitors to the islands cannot go without official escort, and they can't even bring water bottles on shore!

Answer 2

It is 600 miles from Quito or Guyaquil. That is -even without bad weather - at 20 miles a day 30 days each way of Kayaking. How would you pack enough food? Even at 40 miles a day. (Thats a lot of paddling) still two weeks best circumstances each way.. Good luck and, since you are going to die anyway, will me any good stuff you might have.
