Galapagos Islands - Punta Garcia Galapagos

Galapagos Islands cruises visitor site - Punta Garcia

Located on the eastern coast, across the Isabela Channel from James Island. Previously the site was only accessible by panga, the Galapagos Islands park service now permits land visits.

Arriving at Punta Garcia begins with a dry landing in some rough current causing the panga and passengers to get wet. This is the  only visitor site on Isabela Island reachable without sailing around the west coast.

Darwin Volcano looms above this barren landscape covered with Galapagos Islands Aa Lava. Just above the shoreline Flightless Cormorants used to be seen breeding between March and September. The birds now seem to have deserted the site leaving an occasional Brown Pelican behind.
