Galapagos Trip Spring 2009

Bighorn Divers, Galapagos Diving Trip, Ecuador
April 2nd to the 13th, 2009Galapagos Islands
Lying on the equator, 600 miles west of the Ecuadorian coast is the Galapagos Archipelago, consisting of 6 main islands and over a dozen smaller ones. Over many hundreds of thousands of years, animals and plants somehow migrated there. As time passed, they adapted themselves to Galapagos conditions and came to differ more and more from their mainland ancestors. Thus many of the species are unique and quite tame. The islands were uninhabited until 1535 and the animals and fish still have little instinctive fear of man. Due to constant ocean currents providing an endless food source, the underwater life of the Galapagos provides adventurous diving, where any moment can amaze you.Our Personal Guide
