SUSTAINABILITY AND LOCAL PURCHASING AT THE FINCH BAY GALAPAGOS HOTEL

From its secluded beachfront location in Puerto Ayora, on the south coast of Santa Cruz Island, the 27-room Finch Bay remains a pioneer in sustainability in the Galapagos Islands.

We were the first hotel to treat its wastewater (and then employ it to irrigate the hotel’s native plants and trees as well as its vegetable and herb gardens). We were among the first hotels to install energy-saving lights with sensors and invest in greener appliances. We have reduced single-use plastic to zero. We encourage our guests to act responsibly while staying with us. And of course, we are carbon neutral through our offsetting program in Ecuador’s biodiverse Chocó forests.

This video summarizes all the actions we’ve undertaken, and implement every day, to create a more positive impact on our environment, on our local community and among all our stakeholders.

LOCAL PURCHASING EQUALS GREATER SUSTAINABILITY

Over the years, we have been working on a key aspect of the Finch Bay’s sustainability: our food and beverage supply chain.

We have sought to increase our purchasing of local produce, working alongside local farmers and artisanal fishing companies to improve the quality of their ingredients through long-term relationships of trust and mutual benefit. Our positive impact in the local Galapagos community has improved as a result.
