Don't take anything from the
islands that does not belong
there, take only photographs,
and leave only your footprints.
• Please do not feed the
animals. This can be dangerous to
you and it will also affect
the social structure and natural
behavior of the animals.
• Please do not startle or
chase any animal from its resting
or nesting spot.
• Please stay on the marked
trails. Many people visit the
islands and it is important
that people do not damage
vegetation or disturb animals
outside of the trails.
• Please do not leave any
litter, or throw any litter over
board.
• Please do not buy any
souvenirs made from native
Galapagos products, (except
for wood) as this encourages
the exploitation of these
resources. Especially, do not buy
sea lion teeth, black coral,
or tortoise / turtle shell products.
• Do not smoke in the islands.
• Do not hesitate to show
your conservationist attitude.
