About Santa Cruz

Santa Cruz is the most populated island of the Galápagos, a volcanic island of lava tunnels, giant tortoises and sea lions on the harbour front.

Santa Cruz lies at the centre of the Galápagos Islands, about a thousand kilometres west of mainland Ecuador. Puerto Ayora is its main town, where sea lions doze on benches and pelicans wait at the fish market. The Charles Darwin Research Station, on the edge of town, runs breeding programmes for giant tortoises, and a walking path leads to Tortuga Bay, a long white beach where marine iguanas feed on the rocks.
