The young, volcanic, Galapagos Archipelago is made up of over 130
islands and islets, although only five are actually inhabited. A
province of Ecuador, they are located on the Equator, about 1,000
km (about 600 miles) to the west of South American mainland. Aside
from their natural beauty, and the opportunities for exploration by
sea, the Galapagos Islands are intimately associated with
scientific research. While this may have begun with Charles
Darwin's brief visit in 1835, today the emphasis is on conservation
research, and the islands and surrounding marine reserve form a
UNESCO Natural World Heritage Site.The Galapagos Islands Explorer

approximately 100 x 69 cm (W x H) when unfolded. It also has
sections on human history, conservation, National Park Rules, the
various island names (Ecuadorian and English), a timeline, and
biographies of the significant people in Galapagos history. It will
complement a trip to the islands, and help you make the most of
your time there.Mapping has come a long way since the islands first
appeared on Gerardus Mercator's map in 1569, and the Galapagos
Islands Explorer is the perfect companion for a visit to the
archipelago. As well as the map itself, the Explorer gives a
general introduction to the geology, climate, and geography of the
islands, plus background background information on the flora and
fauna you can expect to see - from Galapagos cotton to the famous
iguanas and giant tortoises. There is concise and practical
information on each of the main islands as well as the most popular
dive sites.
