About this site
Punta Espinosa sits on the northeastern tip of Fernandina Island, the youngest and most volcanic of the Galapagos Islands, in Ecuador's Pacific waters. The site fronts a point known for its large marine iguana colonies and lava shoreline, with the open water offshore shaped by the cold, nutrient-rich currents that sweep this western part of the archipelago.
