Our video of the week comes to us from Dive in Ecuador and features Galápagos Diving at Darwin Island, Wolf Island, Cousins Rock and Seymour Island. Located at a major intersection of several ocean currents, the Galápagos Islands are home to a staggering array of marine life, nearly 20 percent of which is found nowhere else on earth.

Read the Galápagos destination profile to learn more about diving in this “bucket list” destination, or visit ScubaEarth to view the islands’ many dive sites and locate a PADI dive shop.
