The Galapagos
Island group is classified as a World Heritage Site and has also been called a ‘living
museum and showcase of evolution’. It’s therefore not surprising that it has
found its way into the travel bucket list of many adventurous souls around the
world. The place boasts of attractions not found anywhere else on this vast
planet.
Variety of Wildlife
The Galapagos
is home to some of the most fascinating animals in the world, a few of which only
exist here. One endemic species is the only
seafaring lizard in the world: the Galapagos Marine Iguana. It is also home
to the world-famous Giant Tortoises, known not only for their pre-historic
large sizes but also for their longevity.
About to Become History
A trip
to the Galapagos isn’t a vacation: it’s an expedition. Adventure tour packages include
activities like hiking, kayaking, and snorkelling, opening opportunities for
more discoveries and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. At the moment, the
islands’ governing body has enforced a visitor limit to avoid harming the
ecology, but the steady influx of visitors could eventually change the place’s
landscape forever. Before mass tourism takes over, one should visit the islands
to experience its uniqueness at its best.
Take a Plunge
Galapagos’
beaches are some of the most beautiful in the world, with a unique variety of coastlines,
sand colour, and sunsets. Have you ever stepped foot on exotic black sand or a green beach? If you
haven’t been to the Galapagos, then you most likely haven’t yet.
