A few photos from my recent Galapagos photography tour starting with sea lions. Info about future Galapagos photography holidays is here.
Sea lions are such beautiful animals and I could watch them for hours. We always see so many every day on my Galapagos photography tour on the beaches and in the water during snorkelling trips.
A few clips of snorkelling on this Galapoagos photography tour are here.
A spot of photo bombing with a great blue heron wandering into shot.
So many lovely encounters with Pacific green turtles while we were snorkelling.
Bird life on these beautiful islands as ever was spectacular.
Blue footed booby heaven …
Although like most of the wildlife here they can sometimes even be too close to photograph …
Like these Galapagos Flycatchers which we had an extraordinary encounter with one morning where they seemed to be curious of their reflections in people’s cameras.
Flightless Cormorants are just one of many endemic species in the Galapagos with beautiful turquoise eyes.
There’s different species of giant tortoise on various islands here and we had great encounters on Santa Cruz, Isabela and San Christobal.
Iguanas are a daily part of life in the Galapagos with both marine and land species. Below are some clips of marine Iguanas on the beautiful empty beaches here.
Lava lizards are a common sight in the Galapagos again with different species on various island.
Some great sightings of Frigate birds with their mating display on Isla Lobos.
I could go on forever as we had so many lovely wildlife encounters on this trip but Spring is Springing back in UK and time to head into the garden. I’m planning another Galapagos trip for December 2025 – more info here.
