Islands:
are located roughly 1000 km straight west of mainland Ecuador. There are 19 major islands and many smaller islets, whose land mass together covers 7880 km2 over an area of 50 000 km2 of ocean. Isabela is the largest of the islands, having an area of 4590 km2. It also boasts the highest elevation in the archipelago with Wolf volcano reaching 1645 m.
Geology:
The islands now called Galapagos are of recent volcanic origin , having risen out of the sea a few million years ago. A geological theory called " Hot Spot " tries to explain their creation by imagining huge magma blocks escaping through an opening in the earth's crust and building themselves up over million s of years. Two major tectonic plates meet in the vicinity and spread or move away from each other thus creating the spaces for those mantle plumes to form. Isabela and Fernandina islands are the most recent ones with less than a million years of life. The southeastern islands of Española boast of the oldest rocks and

TOP Pacific Coast TOP The Andes Mountain Range crosses the country from north to south. The Occidental and the Oriental Ranges are born from this mountain system as it divides in the province of Loja, forming plains and valleys along the Andean Corridor. Between the two ranges there is a plateau which reaches heights of three thousand meters. The Highlands Regions, commonly referred to as La Sierra, is made up of ten provinces, each of which have important peaks such as Chimborazo, the Illinizas, Cotopaxi, Cayambe, and Antisana.

Geography
Islands:
are located roughly 1000 km straight west of mainland Ecuador.
There are 19 major islands and many smaller islets, whose land mass together covers 7880 km2 over an area of 50 000 km2 of ocean.
Isabela
is the largest of the islands, having an area of 4590 km2. It also boasts of the highest elevation in the archipelago with Wolf volcano reaching 1645 m.
Geology:
The islands which are called now Galapagos are of recent volcanic origins , having risen out of the sea a few million years ago. A geological theory called " Hot Spot " tries to explain their creation by imagining huge magma blocks escaping through an opening in the earth's crust and building themselves up over million of years. Two mayor tectonic plates meet in the vicinity and spread or move away from each other and so creating the spaces for those mantle plumes to form. Isabela and Fernandina islands are the most recent ones with less of one million years of life. The southeastern islands of Española boasts of the oldest rocks and that coincides with the direction of the movements of the Cocos and Nazca Plates . The islands were never connected to any continent but it is believed that an eroded underwater ridge called the Carnegie Ridge were once above water and are part of the same geological event. This ridge is halfway between the current islands and the mainland and would explain more satisfactorily, how the animals and plants could have arrived on Galapagos.
