Galapagos Islands Climate and Weather
There are two seasons: December to May is warm and wet and June to December is usually dry and cool. Yearly rainfall in the lower regions is 2-4in (60-100mm) and the temperatures ranges somewhere between 69°-84°F/21°-29°C.
The islands’ weather conditions are influenced by sea flow. The unexpected climatic alteration due to El Niño is usually disastrous: as many as 50% of sea lions and marine iguanas can pass away during this time.
The convergence of three major oceanic currents provides an incredible blend of ocean life to this islands. Regardless of being situated in the tropics, the Galapagos micro-climate is remarkably dry. During the cool period, the Humboldt Current provides cold waters, which creates thermal inversions that obstruct rainfall.
At this time, a fine mist known as “garua” is created as cool, humid air just over the water meets a superior layer of air which is warmed up by the warm sun.
‘El Niño’ can be described as phenomenon that happens roughly every 5-7 years. The south trade winds slacken and cause the sea temperatures to rise significantly provoking stormy weather and heavy precipitation.
The Islands are famous for their unique plant life and vast number of native species existing nowhere else in the world. These include; reddish and blue-footed boobies, frigate birds, giant vivid tortoises, flamingos as well as marine and land iguanas.

Giant Tortoises
The giant tortoises of Galapagos are among the most famous of the temples of the Islands. While giant tortoises once thrived on the majority of the continents of the world, the Galapagos tortoises currently represent one of the remaining two groups of giant tortoises in the whole world -another band living on Aldabra Atoll in the Indian Ocean. The Galapagos Islands were known for their giant tortoises; the Spanish word galapago meant saddle, a term early explorers used for its tortoises due to the form of their shells.
The closest surviving relative of the Galapagos colossal tortoise is your small Chaco tortoise out of South America, though it’s not a direct ancestor. Scientists believe the initial tortoises arrived to Galapagos two–3 million years ago by traveling 600 miles from the South American coast on vegetation rafts or in their own. They were large creatures before coming in Galapagos. Colonizing the eastern-most islands of Española and San Cristobal very first, they then spread through the archipelago, eventually establishing at least 15 individual populations on ten of the largest Galapagos Islands.
Although there’s a great deal of variation in size and form among Galapagos tortoises, two main morphological types exist -that the domed carapace (similar to their ancestral form) and also the saddle-backed carapace. Domed tortoises tend to be much bigger in size and don’t have the upward thrust into the front of their carapace; they live on the bigger, islands with humid highlands where forage is usually plentiful and readily obtainable. Saddle-backed shells evolved on the arctic islands in reaction to the lack of accessible food. The front of the carapace angles upwards, letting the tortoise to expand its mind higher to reach the greater vegetation, such as cactus pads.
