Puerto Egas, located on Santiago Island in the Galápagos, is a renowned site where visitors land on a black-sand beach and explore scenic trails. Visitors can observe sea lions, marine iguanas, Sally Lightfoot crabs, and the elusive Galápagos fur seal while enjoying tide pools and volcanic grottoes. The site also reveals remnants of a 1960s salt mine, including ruined buildings and a flat area once used as a football field. Notably, the area is home to Darwin’s finches, Galápagos hawks, and lava lizards.
