Sharks Of The Galapagos
Up to 30 shark species have been recorded in the waters of these incredible islands with the most prominent ones being the Scalloped Hammerhead, Galapagos, Whale, Tiger, Silky, Dusky, Blacktip and Whitetip Reef sharks.
Getting There
Due to where the islands are located, about 960 km (600 mi) west of the Ecuador mainland, the only reasonable option to get there is by air.
There are no direct international flights, so a connecting flight from either Quito or Guayaquil in Ecuador can be made.
Galapagos Tortoise
There are 12 different species of this tortoise spread across ten different islands showing a big variation in size and shape.
The largest of the species is the biggest in the world with some individuals measuring up to 1.8 m (5.9 ft) long and weighing 400 kg (881 lb).
Galapagos National Park Penguin
This is the only penguin species to be found north of the equator and they are endangered because the population numbers fewer than 2000.
Most inhabit Fernandina Island and the west coast of Isabela Island.
