From the distinctive wildlife that inspired Darwin’s theory of evolution to utterly breathtaking volcanic landscapes, the Galapagos offers an unparalleled experience of discovery and amazement. Nature lovers and adventurers alike will find endless opportunities to explore and be awed by the islands’ rich biodiversity and raw, primal beauty.

Since the Galápagos Islands are a part of Ecuador, LGBTQ+ rights there follow the national legal framework of Ecuador. This means same-sex marriage is legal, and there are protections against discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
However, the social acceptance and visibility of LGBTQ+ individuals can vary across different parts of Ecuador, including the Galápagos. Being a major tourist destination, the Galápagos Islands tend to be more liberal, welcoming travellers from all walks of life, including the LGBTQ+ community.
