Isabela, more than nature: living history and the heart of the Galapagos

History

Isabela Island is the largest island in the archipelago and a place where natural history blends with the life of its local communities. Formed by six volcanoes, this island not only offers unique landscapes but also stories of resilience and connection to the land. Its inhabitants, many descendants of settlers and fishermen, have transformed their relationship with nature, now embracing responsible tourism as a way to preserve and share their home. Walking through Isabela is like entering a land where marine iguanas and children play on the beach with equal freedom.
