Los Tuneles is a day boat trip out of Puerto Villamil on Isla Isabela.  We used Pahoehoe Tours and had an amazing excursion to the tunnels.  This is a beautiful part of the Galapagos and it is part of the National Park System.  There are so many natural lava tunnels above and below the water.  This area is home to many giant sea turtles and sea horses.  An amazing trip that you should not miss if you are in the Galapagos
One the best tour to Bartolomé in Galápagos Islands

Yellow Heron house is beautiful and functional. We were a two-family group of seven, it was perfect and we were all very comfortable.

Very difficult to get cash. the one ATM would not recognize our card. The people are helpful and we found a couple of places to use credit cards to eat. Nutria at Natural Selection was excellent& able to book boats and tours on Visa here.

Puerto Villamil is a very small, quaint little town with dirt roads, a handful of restaurants and shops, and wonderfully friendly locals. If you want a relaxing and peaceful vacation, this is the perfect little town. Would come back in a heartbeat.

It's a very small, easily walkable town. The beautiful beach is lined with scenic coconut trees. Next to the harbor is Concha de Perla, a shallow area good for snorkeling. A 1.5 km trail passes by flamingos and leads to a tortoise breeding center.
