Galápagos Islands, a small paradise in the middle of the ocean.

 Are you thinking of visiting Ecuador? Well, if you do,  I'm sure you've got to go to the Galápagos Islands, a fabulous paradise full of unforgettable landscapes. 

There are too many places you can visit, even foreign people, who have visited these awesome islands, say that they couldn't sightsee all the fantastic things about them. I visited this magical place a bit of time ago and I can say this experience was out of this world. 

To get there, we took an airplane to Isla San Cristóbal. When we got there, we just looked for a place to sleep that was too easy to find because there are lots of hotels that are open to the world. Then we went to eat something, I got surprised because the food was a bit expensive, in comparison with the prices we got in my hometown. These high prices had been added to all the products you wanna get, like water, food, junk food, fruits and more. 

We got to Galápagos a bit late, so we planned our itinerary for tomorrow, checking all the places we can go and all the exotic food we can try. The next day we walked around all the village and went to many beaches. In every step you took, there was something remarkable to see, it could be animals, plants, or even the landscape. The view of the breathtaking places like beaches or forests was so memorable because you get shocked about unique animals like turtles, iguanas, sea lions and more. These animals were always walking in the city, like humans. That was the first time I'd seen something like that. 

The following day, my family went to Isla Santa Cruz by boat, which is used for going to any place in the islands. Actually, boats have been considered for all people like taxis. In Santa Cruz, we visited many places, but my favorites were Charles Darwin's scientist station and Turtle's Beach.

Charles Darwin's scientist station is the place where are preserved many species of the islands. It has been called in honor to the scientist Charles Darwin, because of their investigations in the Islands and contributions to the Scientists community. I remember me asking many questions to the tour guide about Carles Darwin and the famous turtle "Solitario Geoge", the last one of his species, which had died out many years ago when George passed away without any descendants. The second place I liked the most was Turtle's Beach, a giant beach full of impressive nature. Getting there really challenged me. We had to walk for 40 minutes, going through the forest and a remarkable beach, but in the end, the whole walking was worth, it because the beach was stunning. I had never seen a beach like that. It was the cleanest beach where I have been. The water was as perfectly blue as the sky. It was something I'll never forget. 

We did many activities, and one was scuba diving, a sport that I'd never done before. In the beginning, I was scared about being under many meters in the water, but I got calm with time. I could see many animals like fish and turtles that were swimming. Eve, I swam with baby sharks, something extreme for me, but I really enjoyed all of that. Finally, we returned to San Cristobal and we decided to finish ur trip watching the amazing giant turtles or Galápagos. They're unique in the world, and you can just see them in Galápagos.

I'll never forget traveling around this impressive place, so I'm pretty sure if you visit it, you'll get a remarkable experience. So try it out.
