Mexican Galapagos. Isla Isabela

Isla Isabela is one of those rare places on Earth that feels untouched and wild, sitting right in the middle of the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Mexico. This remote island is home to colonies of blue-footed boobies that let you get incredibly close, and its rocky shores are filled with iguanas warming in the sun. Beneath the surface, the scuba diving is spectacular—crystal-clear waters, schools of colorful fish, and volcanic reefs full of life. Reaching Isla Isabela isn’t simple: you either book a tour from Puerto Vallarta or, for the adventurous, sail across the open sea as we did. That journey makes the experience even more rewarding, because when you finally step ashore, it feels like entering a secret world where nature rules. #islaisabela #mexicotravel #scubadiving
