Galapagos Fishing with Captain Warren
|
The Galapagos Islands are located exactly on the equator, six hundred nautical miles off the coast of Ecuador. The Galapagos, a 17,000 sq mi archipelago, the newest on the planet, is under the care of the ‘Parque Nacional de Galapagos’.
In order to manage this immense natural wonder, a few Galapagos born citizens are allowed to work there, mainly in Park Services, coast guard and Ecuadorian Navy. Some tourism has been accepted as a way to provide an income. Tourism companies work hand in hand with the Park Service to insure minimal impact on the environment.

The island of San Cristobal, one of four inhabited islands, has an airport serviced by national air carriers with daily flights from either Quito or Guayaquil, Ecuador. Travelers may expect to spend at least one night on the mainland before arriving in the islands.
On San Cristobal there are several small hotels. An inter- island water taxi provides transportation to other inhabited islands. Practically all food and drink is shipped from the mainland as agriculture is extremely limited. Local fishermen keep only enough fish for their own consumption, and commercial fishing is not permitted. Sportfishing, better known as Pesca Vivencial, has only recently been allowed and is strictly catch - and - release. Only a handful of Pesca Vivencial vessels operate in the Galapagos, and all adhere to strict environmental rules.
