Galapagos Videos
This web page contains a series of short videos that were taken near the end of our trip. The initial video was in Tortuga Bay using my Nikon D5200 camera, while the balance were taken by Vladimir using his GoPro underwater camera. Vladimir was a guide on the tour boat when we went to Los Tuneles and he gave a copy of the videos to the four of us, after the tour.
Blue Footed Boobies
This video was taken in Tortuga Bay while our boat was bouncing up and down in the waves.
Seahorse
The seahorse is curled around some sticks on the bottom. There are also a few fish that were rooting around the bottom.
Tiger Snake Eel and fish
Vladimir followed this tiger snake eel around the bottom. There are some fish that I couldn't identify in the immediate area.
Golden Rays
Vladimir is following a school of golden rays as they swim around the lagoon.
Kfir with the Golden Rays
Kfir is swimming along beside the school of golden rays. This video has a closer look at some of the rays.
Whitetip Reef Sharks
Vladimir swam into a cave that was just below the surface to view these sharks swimming around. He told us that they were not aggressive towards swimmers, but we were pretty cautious.
Following a Whitetip Reef Shark
Vladimir follows one reef shark around and it passes several schools of fish, then goes into a cave. Other sharks sitting near the bottom of the cave.
Galapagos Penguin
A Galapagos penguin sits on the lava by the water, preening itself. In the lasy second, Kfir pops up behind the lava rock.
