Galapagos Islands - Out of This World ...Literally

---

What an amazing place. It lived up to and beyond all of our expectations. Fantastic turquoise blue sea and white sand (which was not expected!). Wildlife everyewhere you turn....and it doesn´t move to get out of your way, you have to do the moving.

Made our own way there and toured the 2 big Islands independently for a 4 days before joining a luxury Catamaran, which we picked up for half price, and sailing off the far off Islands.

Did some dives from the boat and saw sharks, and lots of swimming and snorkelling with baby sea lions, turtles and penguins, which were more than happy to join in.

Some Highlights....
