FERNANDINA ISLAND
Located just across the eastern coast of Isabela island and separated by the bolivar channel, Fernandina island is most famous for its continuing series of volcanic eruptions. Many of the early visitors to the archipelago commented on dramatic changes in the landscape, smoking craters, and actual eruptions.
There is large colonies of marine iguanas scattered around the shore line of the disembarkation point where visitors can witness the dramatic lava landscape and this unique remote ecosystem.
Punta Espinosa
This is a spectacular spot to admire a concentration of lava lizards, snakes, blue-footed boobies, sea lions, finches, crabs, Galapagos hawks, marine iguanas, flightless cormorants, penguins and mangrove forests.
