VIDEO | Growing in the Galapagos: A Nat Hab Guide Story

When Josy was a child, her single mother moved her family to the Galapagos to help build a better life for her two young daughters. Josy says her mother's brave decision was "the best thing that could ever happen to us." Watch to see how Josy's unique upbringing and supportive mother led her to pursue an exciting career as a professional Expedition Leader.

VIDEO | Galapagos Islands: The Nat Hab Experience

Travel with us to the Enchanted Isles to discover a natural realm like none other. Our naturalist Expedition Leaders reveal unique wildlife encounters at eye level—meet tortoises, iguanas, sea lions, blue-footed boobies and more, as we explore this magical realm both above and below the water.

VIDEO | Wildlife of the Galapagos

There may be no nature destination on earth as special as the Galapagos Islands, where unique animals show no fear of humans. In this video, see what it's like to snorkel with sea lions and sea turtles, hang out on the beach with marine iguanas, and more!

WEBINAR | The Galapagos: Adventure in the Enchanted Isles

Originally presented February 20, 2024
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

Originally presented January 23, 2024
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

Originally presented November 28, 2023
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

Originally presented October 16, 2023
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.
