1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour #334 - Marine Iguanas, Santiago Island, Galapagos

1001 Places/Experiences to See or Savour After Remission #334

- Marine Iguanas, Santiago Island, Galapagos



(We sailed into the island of Santiago overnight, hopped onto the zodiac boats, and like Charles Darwin in 1835, saw some of the most unique animal life ever - from the marine iguanas, to the Galapagos hawk having his breakfast, a sealion and her pup blowing bubbles, bright red Sally Lightfoot crabs dancing, and more. Can you see that photo where I was looking at the sealion but with a blue-heron at the top of my head? A real open zoo up here and they are not afraid of humans. We were given time to cool off with some snorkelling but chose to dip in the sea instead - warm waters like Singapore, but black volcanic sand here. This is easily the most impressive field-trip I have ever been to!  )
