Facts and practical information
Darwin Island is among the smallest in the Galápagos Archipelago with an area of just one square kilometre. It is named in honour of English scientist Charles Darwin. With no dry landing sites, Darwin Island's main attractions are found in the Pacific Ocean, which is teeming with a large variety of marine life. Although the island had been marked on maps and had initially been given the name Culpepper Island on Admiralty charts, the first landing on Darwin Island was not until 1964, by helicopter. ()
