Galapagos Islands Photography & what to expect:  

During our 8-day trip we will be traveling between many of the islands and making a wet or dry landing in a new spot every day! Each day will include excursions on different islands and most days will also include snorkeling opportunities to enjoy swimming with sea lions, sea turtles and many species of fish. An underwater camera may be very handy! 

Check out this underwater video I did on my first snorkel outing.
