It was my dream destination and I am so glad I went, such a shame that Darwin`s Arch collapsed earlier this year, ah well Darwin`s Pillars had to do.

Trip of time for sure. So many beautiful animals in a rather small archipelago. Magnificent frigatebird Notice the rocks are covered with Marine Iguanas Sea Lion pups Blue Footed Booby Marine Iguana Galapagos Diving ...  

So many memories of these islands

These is one of the most fertile and diverse places I was lucky to visit many moons ago. Feels like Jurassic Park, especially when you dive I hope the authorities manage to keep its ecosystem thriving

Problems

My colleague is from Ecuador and he mentioned that he is worried that the government might be relaxing some of the restrictions, per the dive guides they had problems with Chinese fishing boats finning and illegally fishing and not just one but few hundre... 

So sad, but somehow I am not surprised

That this is being allowed. It’s nothing short of criminal.

Just amazing

How cool that you got to experience it, and thank you for sharing it with us. Which watch did you chose as your diving companion? Cheers, Alex

Usually I take Submariner but the diving conditions were a bit too rough for me to worry about watch on top of it all.

Sublime postcards!

That first photo with the bird on wing in the background. Casey .

Exquisite! What watch does one wear in such circumstances?

The diving was too rough to take anything too valuable since you spend a lot of time in current holding rocks for dear life.

Very cool! Good to know!

brat, I wouldn't have had to make...choices. Lolllllll I would had dearly liked to spend time in the Galapagos. Alas, living on the opposite side of the world, surrounded spectacular dive sites and marine life, I never made it there. Oh well, I'll "immers...
