Overview
An old island, it has eroded volcanic peaks in the north and rich vegetation in the south. The Interpretation Centre, an excellent place to learn about the natural and human history of the islands, is in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, the capital of the Galápagos. There’s excellent snorkelling just off the beaches at Cerro Brujo. Isla Lobos is a dramatic basalt island outcrop which lives up to its name “sea lion island”.
