Galapagos cruises offer a wide variety of exotic wildlife and is without a doubt an amazing sight to experience. With iguanas, lava lizards, geckos, giant tortoises and the most commonly seen green sea turtle, considered to be endangered throughout its range, Galapagos cruises make it possible to see wildlife scattered about the archipelago. Because guests on Galapagos cruises spend so much time on and around the Galapagos water, the sea and shore birds typically receive more attention than the land birds. However, beyond Galapagos cruises are 29 recognized land birds living in the Galapagos Islands. With all the beauty and fascinating wildlife abound, Galapagos cruises will bring you memories and pictures of the wonderful creatures found in this uncommon place. Look at the following list to find out what kind of Galapagos wildlife to expect on one of our Galapagos cruises!
