WEBINAR | The Galapagos: Adventure in the Enchanted Isles
There may be no better place on the planet for close encounters with wildlife than the Galapagos Islands! Join Expedition Leader Andres Vergara to find out what to expect on our adventures in the Enchanted Isles, from snorkeling with sea lions and swimming with turtles, to scouting for whales and camping with giant tortoises. Learn about life aboard our privately chartered small ships (limited to just 14–16 guests), what the weather is like during different seasons, and how to pack for this otherworldly adventure.
WEBINAR | Playful Pinnipeds: Sea Lions of the Galapagos
The Galapagos Islands are brimming with fascinating wildlife, but we admit we have a soft spot for the Enchanted Isles' most common -- and playful -- marine mammals: sea lions. Learn all about the biology of these pinnipeds -- an order that includes fin- or flipper-footed marine mammals such as seals and walruses -- and what the differences are between curious Galapagos sea lions and shyer Galapagos fur seals (which are, despite their name, also sea lions!). And discover how you can swim, snorkel and kayak with sea lions on our Galapagos adventures.
WEBINAR | Protecting the Petrel: Seabird Conservation in the Galapagos
The swift-flying petrel is one of a handful of seabirds endemic to the Galapagos Islands. They’re so iconic, in fact, that one of the ships we charter for our Galapagos adventures is named Petrel! Unfortunately, petrel populations are in decline across the Galapagos, primarily due to invasive species that destroy their nesting habitats or prey on petrels themselves. Galapagos Expedition Leader Jonathan Guillen introduces us to the petrel and explains the threats they face and what’s being done to protect them.
WEBINAR | Seabirds of the Galapagos
The Galapagos Islands are renowned for their prolific birdlife, from Darwin’s famous finches to pelagic penguins and petrels. Join Expedition Leader Luis Vinueza as he introduces us to some of the seabirds of the Galapagos, including blue-footed and Nazca boobies, waved albatrosses, Galapagos penguins and flightless cormorants. Learn about the adaptations that allow them to thrive in this unique environment, their mating and nesting habits, and how they’re threatened by climate change.
