Ecuador
Galapagos Island is a settlement in Ecuador with a population of 33,042. It lies in the Galápagos archipelago, close to the Equator, and is served by Baltra Airport (GPS) for air arrivals.
There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips are not a defining feature of the immediate area. The Galápagos has an equatorial climate, with generally warm conditions throughout the year and seasonal changes in rainfall and cloud cover.
