One of the most unique ecosystems in the world can be found on the Galapagos Islands. You will find a diverse array of animal species on the islands such as the blue-footed booby, the flightless cormorant, the waved albatross or the fur seal. It was because of that reason that Charles Darwin based his evolution theory on research on the Galapagos. And for that very same reason thousands of travelers from all over the world visit the islands every year.

The Galapagos chain consists of 13 major volcanic islands about a 1000 miles of the coast of Ecuador. The islands can be reached by plane or boat but once inside the archipelago the best way to explore the immense beauty of the flora and fauna, is by boat .
