Galapagos Islands Exploration

The Galapagos chain consists of 18 major islands, with Isla Isabella uniquely straddling the equator. The islands experience two distinct seasons, influenced by the Humboldt current, leading to a cooler, foggy Garua season. A historical debate surrounds the potential pre-Columbian human presence, with theories suggesting either the Incas or Polynesians could have reached the islands, yet no concrete evidence supports these claims.
