There are plenty of interesting creatures in the waters around these islands, like marine iguanas and the Flightless Cormorant – a bird that uses its stubby wings to swim rather than fly. On Isabela Island, the crew visits Darwin’s Lake – a saltwater lake – to study flower color and pollination and spends some time in Zodiac boats finding penguins endemic to the islands.
