Isla Isabela Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Los Tuneles is a day boat trip out of Puerto Villamil on Isla Isabela.  We used Pahoehoe Tours and had an amazing excursion to the tunnels.  This is a beautiful part of the Galapagos and it is part of the National Park System.  There are so many natural lava tunnels above and below the water.  This area is home to many giant sea turtles and sea horses.  An amazing trip that you should not miss if you are in the Galapagos

9.6/10 Exceptional! (92 reviews)
we stayed in a mainfloor room that walked out directly onto the beach. The room was well maintained, what with the sand that inevitably tracks in despite mats and a washing hose. The hotel is near the end of the strip along the beach which kept things quiet but easily walkable to anything we wanted. ...
