Journey to the Galápagos Islands

On land and in the sea, the Galápagos Islands give the impression of a diabolic Garden of Eden. The islands' tumultuous volcanic history of scorched earth and fiery flows are evident the moment you arrive. Inhospitable. Uninhabitable. Tortured. These are the adjectives inspired by the lava seascape—but look closer. This seemingly Spartan landscape is in fact teeming with life – the first of the Galápagos' many contradictions.

Be a Part of the Adventure

Join the National Aquarium as you bear witness to our planet's most captivating wildlife: for example, their namesake, the 600-pound tortoises, which in the Spanish language, are called Galápagos. You'll be mesmerized by the awe-inspiring landscapes and misty volcanic peaks. The underwater world is equally enchanting.
