Galapagos Santiago island


Santiago Islands,  has a long human history as well as some outstanding opportunities for wildlife viewing.

The elongated shield volcano of Santiago Island is dotted with Holocene pyroclastic cones. Fresh lava flows that blanket the flanks of the volcano originated from these cones. The 920-m-high summit ridge, lined with NW-trending cinder and spatter cones, is seen here from James Bay on the west side of the island.
