The Galapagos Islands
The Galapagos Islands cast out in
the middle of the Pacific Ocean, are
a living laboratory of evolution
where birds and animals have no fear
of man. A natural habitat for the
Giant Tortoise, quite simply there
is nothing else quite like them in
the world. To quote their most
famous visitor, Charles Darwin: ‘The
natural history of this archipelago
is very remarkable: it seems to be a
little world within itself; the
greater number of its inhabitants,
both vegetable and animal, being
found nowhere else.’ The Ultimate
way to enjoy the archipelago is by
private yacht, with a terrestrial
and diving guide anchoring in remote
bays to explore the geology and
wildlife on footor the fascinating
depths swim with the Hammerheads,
the Marine Iguanas and the Penguins. |
