Today we are touring the northern part of Isabella Island which we are told will be remote, wild and even forbidding. The main feature is a line of volcanoes. Volcan Darwin was named to honor Charles Darwin, the Galapagos’ most famous visitor. The Equator runs through the caldera of Volcan Wolf which is named after the Ecuadorian geologist. Sailing around Volcan Ecuador, we will see that half of the volcano has slipped into the ocean. In the afternoon we will arrive at Fernandina Island and venture off the vessel. Here we will see a wide variety of animals such as marine and land iguanas, tortoises, hawks, sea lions and a great variety of sea birds, such as the flightless cormorants.
