Introduction

Fernandina is the third largest Galapagos Island and was named in honour of King Fernando of , who historically sponsored the legendary voyage of Christopher Columbus. She is the westernmost Galapagos Island and is situated on the Bolivar Channel opposite Isabela Island . With an exceptionally striking volcanic landscape, Fernandina is the most volcanically active island in the Galapagos archipelago, with eruptions occurring every few years.

The only visitor site on Fernandina is Punta Espinosa: a narrow spit of land in the northeast corner of the island. This is a great location in which to encounter unique Galapagos species a favourite vantage point from which to encounter one of the highest concentrations of endemic marine iguanas.
