Galapagos Islands Natural History of the Galapagos Islands -
The natural history of the Galapagos Islands has fascinated visitors since their most famous guest landed there in 1845. Darwin's observations during his voyage on the HMS Beagle laid the foundation for a theory that greatly impacted western thought --the theory of evolution.
Upon rediscovery of the islands, your mind will also reel with delight --leaving you slack-jawed with awe, your camera flashing.
Amid the volcanic geography of these islands 600 miles in the Pacific Ocean, plant life takes root in basalt rock, centurion turtles roam and penguins swim in equatorial waters.
In the 450 years of human history , the islands have been used as prison colonies, naval ports and research stations.
Come with us and discover an undiscovered land in the geology of the Galapagos islands , a unique spot of the earth with an environment nearly untouched by man.

The Galapagos Islands have captured the hearts and imaginations of many people for over two centuries. The history of the Galapagos Islands is turbulent and mysterious: the map was drawn by surveyors and the Galapagos Islands have been invaded by buccaneers and pirates, studied by scientists, biologists and historians, inhabited by modern Adam and Eve in the early twentieth century, and have even resulted in one or two love triangles.
