The Galapagos Conservation Trust is pleased to offer a selection of Galapagos items. All profits from the sale of these items will go towards conservation in Galapagos.

Galapagos Islands Map The Galapagos Explorer map is more than just a map, it's a virtual guide book to the islands on a single sheet of paper. It includes a map of Darwin's route when he went there in 1835; a series of illustrated mini-biographies of notable scientists and explorers who have visited the archipelago; a diagram of the major ocean currents influencing the islands, and another illustrating the "hot spot" theory of volcano formation. It is printed on both sides, with many colour photos of the wildlife and plants, and features short descriptions of virtually all the main terrestrial visitor sites, as well as some of the most important dive sites. £9.99

Chart of the Galapagos Islands This superb chart is a reproduction of an original by Captain Robert Fitzroy, who was in command of HMS Beagle during the historic voyage in 1835. The original Galapagos Island chart, retained in the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office Archive, is embellished with distinctive watercolour views of the Islands, all of which were painted on board HMS Beagle, together with drawings of the natural history that the Islands are renowned for. Size: 75 x 56 cms. Paper 300 gsm silk finish. £9.95
