    negative. From what i hear it's expensive to get to and they limit the number of visitors on the island. waves look great though.

    Darwin used to tear it up in OH sets all day long on Pinta. I heard it's nice.

    People swear by its beauty. Also, check out the google map. Looks like some potential there.

    I know someone who spent about a month or so there, said it was absolutely epic. All rock reef breaks, boat required. Actually, you need a boat just to sleep on right? Isn't it like no / severely limited access to the islands?

    galapagos surf

    Fly to San Cristobol there you can find a reasonable place to stay . There are at least 4 different breaks within walking distance. Can hire boats for fishing/surfing/snorkeling/scuba. Beautiful place. Intense surfing. Swell didn't seem too consistent. Can take boat tours cheaper from here.
