Galápagos June 2022
Visiting the Galápagos Islands is like walking into a wildlife documentary. As Ecuador's first national park and a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Galápagos are home to wealth of unique plants and animals found nowhere else in the world.
One of the most bio-diverse places on earth, the islands are located about 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador, and the sheer number and variety of wildlife both on land and in the water of the Galápagos is phenomenal. From giant tortoises and land iguanas to blue-footed boobies and flightless cormorants, the land-based photographic opportunities are endless. A world under the water offers even more possibilities, including playful sea lions, grazing marine iguanas, fast swimming Galápagos penguins and gently gliding green sea turtles.
No matter where in the Galápagos you are, you can get up close and personal with some of the most interesting wildlife on the planet. In short, the Galápagos are a wildlife photographer's dream, and this short photo essay only skims the surface of this truly amazing place.
