Welcome to the spectacular Galapagos Islands where the birds don't fear you and the seals hunt you.

 

Most famous of all - the impressive Albatros who needs to build a runway to take off

 

Stingrays and sharks like to swim at our beach

Red beach with our sailing boat in the background - in the Galapagos the boats are the only way to go. There are no roads or infrastructure on most islands

The seals are not at all afraid - but you better be, especially in the water. They come around to check you out.
