We boarded the dinghy on Santa Cruz Island and set off to see the wild giant turtles in the Highlands, and took a 30-minute car ride, and occasionally saw giant turtles on the roadside. The car stopped, and there were two giant turtles eating grass next to him. His stout limbs walked steadily and firmly, like elephant feet, no wonder this onshore giant turtle was called elephant turtle. After watching the giant turtle, he went to see a cave formed by volcanic magma.

    Santa Cruz is the largest of the many islands in Galapas province, with residents living on the island and a variety of beautiful beaches, but they are undeveloped and relatively primitive. On this small island, you can fully appreciate the style of the South American island, there are many seals, sea lions and penguins on the island, the scenery is really good.

    Santa Cruz is a relatively large island in Galapas Province, and it is also a transit station to the surrounding islands. There are many hotels and yacht companies built on the island. Santa Cruz Island is very lively at night, with beautiful bars and lively night markets. It is worth living here and slowly playing the surrounding islands.

    Santa Cruz is the most concentrated tourist island in the Galapagos Islands and the most mature island in travel conditions. It takes a quarter of an hour by boat to Santa Cruz Island from Bartra, where the airport is located. Transfer to a bus and cross the cloudy "Gemini crater", even if it crosses the entire island, and the tourist port of Ayola (Puerto Ayora) is just on the other side of the island. Darwin Center is the pilgrimage site of Santa Cruz Island, and it is my first stop to explore this Pacific island. Galapagos, the translation of Galápagos in Spanish, and the Spanish word for giant turtle. The "lone George" is the legend here. The "lone George" is the subspecies of the elephant turtles on the Galapagos island of Pinta, and the last. It survived for over a hundred years, and perhaps Darwin had seen its young when he first arrived on the island, but its death four years ago declared the species to be forever gone from the earth and has since become a flag for the conservation of Galapagos and even global biodiversity. On the seaside reef, groups of seagulls (Marine Iguana) are basking in the sun and occasionally making a low roar, which is that they expel excess salt through the glands between the eyes and nose. These black monsters, with their sloppy faces and their teeth and claws and water sprays, will be the first to find the Panamanian bishop of Galapagos scared, thinking that it is a monster crawling out of hell, and no wonder it is to become the prototype of the famous monster Godzilla. But the fact is that the ugly and fierce seagulls only eat the water grass on the bottom of the sea, and the character Wenson, human and animal harmless. In this cold dark reef, a group of beautiful Sally light-footed crabs caused my interest. These seemingly cooked crabs are nature scavengers, flocking around pickpocketed seagulls, shedding dead skin and keratinizing them. I don't know if the color is too ostentatious to attract predators, Sally's light-footed crab moves extremely agile, once someone close to make the ling wave microstep escape.

    Santa Cruz is the largest island in the entire Galapagos Islands and the capital of the islands. There are many hotels and shops and restaurants on the island, and the pier has cruise ships leading to various islands. The island environment is very clean, the business is developed, it is the departure point of visiting the islands, it is worth a visit.

    This island can see turtles. There are Darwin Park, Turtle Park, the pier can see sea lions, Turtle Bay Beach and the beach of Darwin Park to see sea hunting, which is very good. As long as you are at the pier, the scenery is already beautiful. There is also a crater.

    In the highlands of Santa Cruz (the muddy ground of the giant turtle playground), Mr. Tourist is very proud to say that the wild turtle here is the largest you can find in Galapagos, and we met a giant turtle across the road. The leisurely manner and contempt of all manner of things were indeed the style of Galapagos.
