Galapagos and Ecuador Time Zone

Galapagos and Ecuador Time Zone

The Ecuadorian mainland is five hours behind Greenwich Mean Time, and the Galapagos are six hours behind, one hour behind Ecuador’s continental time, so keep that in mind when figuring out airplane connections.

A few day yachts operate on mainland time to simplify contact with their offices.

Ecuadorian time is in the same time zone as the Eastern Standard Time Zone of the United States.
