According to Ecualale, the origins of Galapagos plants dates back to natural processes of millions of years. In this context, some examples of natural processes are wind currents that transported the seeds of certain plants to the Enchanted Islands. This function also fulfilled the ocean through the water, certain species of birds that transported seeds or spores that were deposited through the Galapagos territory. Eventually, these spores or seeds germinated in the Galapagos land. Subsequently, over the years, these same plants were able to adapt to the conditions provided by the islands, and their structure and physiology was transformed by the new lifestyle that they had to experience. Therefore, adaptation and evolution produced endemism in the Galapagos Islands, and also that certain species of plants can only be found in this specific place. However, the endemic plants of our Enchanted Islands, although they have experienced processes of transformation and evolution for millions of years, have a great similarity with the plants of the continent by their common origins. As a result, researchers and scientists have come to the conclusion that both the flora and fauna of the Galapagos do not have their origins in the islands. Later, when the flora settled completely in certain parts of the archipelago, the seeds and spores were spread throughout the islands by natural processes.
All this flora and fauna of the Galapagos Islands can be observed on board of the Fragata yacht, all this included in an affordable price. Don't miss this incredible opportunity of a lifetime! For more information, feel free to contact us, it will be a huge privilege to assists you.
