Things to see in Ecuador & Galapagos: Floreana

Densely studded with volcanic cones and relatively luxuriant. There are nesting areas for tropicbirds, shearwaters and noddies on the island, and a good lagoon for flamingos and several sealion colonies. The submerged volcanic crater of Devil's Crown provides one of the best snorkelling sites in the Galapagos.
