Isabela is, by far, the largest island in the Galapagos. It is not usually visited on most boat cruises, except longer, high-end tours. This keeps it from getting crowded. The island has a much slower, simple vibe than other populated islands like Santa Cruz or San Cristobal.

Looking to head to Isabela Island? Don't even consider the flights, take the speedboat. it is a bumpy ride (very bumpy), and sea sickness is a risk, so grab a spot near the back where you have access to fresh air. If lucky you will spot dolphins or other animals out in the open ocean. The speedboats run fairly frequently and are relatively cheap. I didn't see a plane take off or land the entire time I was there, even though there are supposed to be some charters you can hire to fly from Baltra.
Good tip?
