Why you should take a visit
The islands are a nature lovers paradise! Surrounding waters and the islands themselves are home to a variety of plants and animals found nowhere else on Earth. Walk among a group of giant tortoises responsible for the naming of the island. Find everything from marble white sands, to seemingly endless tunnels of lava. Smile at the cute little mockingbirds pecking at your feet. Tower peaks of rugged terrain, to vibrant marine habitats! Swim amongst the playful sea lions, or just let the sky dance of the blue-footed boobies warm your heart.
