A
low and flat island located slightly to the north of Baltra.
It was formed as a result of the uplift of a submarine
lava formation. The whole island is covered with low, bushy
vegetation.
Galapagos
largest colony of magnificent frigate birds is found
here, as well as a large population of blue-footed boobies when
nesting conditions are right. Despite the tremendous
surf that can pound the outer shore, sea lions haul themselves
out onto the beach and can be found together with marine iguanas.
You can also find swallow-tailed gulls and the occasional Galapagos snake.
The
visitor trail on North Seymour is approximately 2 km in length,
crossing the inland of the island and exploring the rocky coast
and passes. Along the trail colonies of Blue-Footed Boobies
and Magnificent Frigatebirds.
