Santa Fe

It was formed by an uplift caused by tectonic activity, means that the island does not have the typical cone shape. Home to one of the most beautiful coves in all the Galapagos, it is a turquoise cove protected by a small island that extends from the shore by a row of rocks and by a small island that are aligned with it.

Santa Fe hosts a forest of Opuntia cactus, which is the largest of the archipelago, and one of Palo Santo. Weathered cliffs provide a haven for swallow-tailed gulls, red-billed tropic birds, shear-waters petrels.
