Why dive in the Galapagos Islands?

The Galapagos Islands, home to an impressive variety of endemic species:
Almost 1000km from Ecuador and surrounded by one of the largest marine reserves in the world, the Galapagos Islands can take you on a journey where you can encounter incredible and unique biodiversity both above and below the sea.
Their relative isolation and constant seismic and volcanic activity led to the evolution of unusual and totally unique species, such as marine iguanas, giant tortoises (from which the islands get their name), the world's northernmost species of penguin, flightless cormorants, giant cacti, and several subspecies of mockingbirds and finches. Fortunately for us divers and visitors, the ecosystems of the Galapagos remain remarkably undisturbed, with an astonishing 95% of pre-human biodiversity still intact. It remains the second most pristine place in the world after Antarctica.
They are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognized for their conservation and pristine ecosystems.
A haven for marine life, with sightings of hammerhead sharks, manta rays, marine iguanas and blue-footed boobies.
Famous for inspiring Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, where you too can witness the wonders of nature first-hand!

Today you can see what inspired Charles Darwin's theory of evolution when he visited the site in 1835.
