The seahorse-shaped island of Isabela in the Galapagos is home to a unique marine ecosystem and wildlife encounters that travelers cannot experience anywhere else on Earth. Just one of the endemic species is the flightless cormorant – a bird which rather unusually has lost the use of its wings, but instead boasts exceptional underwater capabilities. These extraordinary birds with stunted wings reside on the coastlines of Isabela and Fernandina, spending their days diving beneath the waves where they dart through the water to catch fish. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ►Follow Silversea: Facebook ► https://www.facebook.com/SilverseaCruises Instagram ► https://www.instagram.com/silverseacruises/ Web ► https://discover.silversea.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Silversea Cruises Silversea Cruises is recognized as an innovator in the ultra-luxury cruise industry, offering guests large-ship amenities aboard its intimate, all-suite vessels: Silver Dawn, Silver Shadow, Silver Whisper, Silver Spirit, Silver Muse and Silver Moon – all designed to offer an atmosphere of conviviality and casual elegance.
