Playas paradisíacas en Isabela Island: Tu escape perfecto
Disfruta de las mejores playas y calas de Isabela Island en una experiencia costera inolvidable.
Isabela is the largest island in the Galapagos, formed by the fusion of six large volcanoes. Unlike the more urbanized islands, Isabela retains a rustic and wild atmosphere, with sandy streets in its main settlement, Puerto Villamil. It is an evolutionary sanctuary where Galapagos penguins, large marine iguanas, flamingos and giant tortoises coexist. Its landscape varies from black lava fields and immense craters like the Sierra Negra, to lush mangroves and bays with crystal clear waters. It is the favorite destination for those seeking an experience of pure nature, geological adventure and a slow pace of life facing the Pacific.
