The Galapagos Islands are a group of volcanic islands lying on the equator and located in the Pacific Ocean approximately1000 km (600 miles) west of Ecuador, South America. The Islands are in fact an archipelago made up of 13 main volcanic islands, 6 smaller islands, and 107 rocks and islets. The very first island is thought to have formed between 5 and 10 million years ago, a result of tectonic activity. The youngest islands, Isabela and Fernandina, are still being formed, with the most recent volcanic eruption being in 2005.
