Galapagos

The Galápagos is a group of volcanic islands (sometimes called an archipelago); each of the 13 major islands is made up of at least one volcano. Isabela island, in the west, is the biggest island (over 75 miles long) and made up of six overlapping volcanoes: Cerro Azul, Sierra Negra, Ecuador, Alcedo, Darwin, and Wolf. The first three mean Blue Hill, Black Mountain, and Equator in Spanish. Alcedo is named after an Ecuadorian government official, and Darwin and Wolf after two of the most famous scientists to have visited the archipelago. Otherwise, the volcanoes and the islands share the same name, so when we say Floreana we mean both Floreana Island and Floreana Volcano.
