The introduction of non-native plant species is considered a top environmental menace to the Galápagos Islands, so don’t bring any fruits, vegetables, or plants of any type with you. Anything which may have seeds or spores clinging to it, such as the soles of your footwear and any out of doors gear or tenting gear, should be washed and inspected totally earlier than being dropped at the islands. The menace of invasive plant species is so nice that guests arriving in the Galápagos should signal an affidavit swearing that they’re not bringing in any food, animals, seeds, or dirty camping gear.
- Although one of many three white-sand beaches on the island is public, most guests go away the island by late afternoon, which makes the beaches feel completely non-public.
- Be certain to maintain it away from your footwear or toiletries to keep away from any stains from dust or leaks.
