Wetsuits on Xpedition?

[kaymoz]

Here is a question about the Galapagos excursions aboard Xpedition -- are the wetsuits all the shorty type or are there choices for the long sleeve & leg type as well?

All shorties.

Thanks -- that is what I suspected from the photographs.  Guess I will need to bring my long sleeved rash guard/sunblock shirts.
Here is another logistics question -- for the wet landings followed by hiking, is there a generous amount of time after landing for shucking the water sandals, drying feet, and changing into socks & hiking shoes, etc.....or does the group basically start the hike once everyone is out of the boat?

you are grouped by 8-12 into Zodiacs. so it goes fast, but yes you do get some time, not alot to change into dry shoes.So board last ,meaning you get of first and a little xtra time.
