Headed by a team of more than two hundred scientists, educators, research volunteers and support staff, this world-wide foundation is dedicated to preserving the Galapagos ecosystems.

Beginning at Darwin Bay Beach, this nature hiking trail leads to many seabird colonies, most notably those of the Red-footed and Masked Boobies, while passing by many cliffs and tide pools along the way.

Teeming with wildlife, this scenic bay is named for Charles Darwin, the famous scientist and naturalist who created the Origin of Species theory.

Located off the north coast of Santiago Island, this underwater site offers divers the opportunity to view sea lions and morays up-close.

Only inhabited by sea birds, this isolated island features quiet waters in its bay (formed by the island’s caldera), which makes it a great place for underwater diving and snorkeling.

This isolated island is best known for its “big animal” diving – it is considered one of the whale shark capitals of the world.

Wolf and Darwin Islands, sometimes called Wenman and Culpepper, are two eroded volcanos located on a volcanic ridge.

This portion of Santa Cruz is so named because it is inhabited by many iguanas.
