North Seymour Island

Dry landing. Seymour is the result of lifting volcanic marine lava. This island has marine fossils from the Pleistocene era.

In 1932 Captain Alan Hancock, his crew and 72 land iguanas that were malnourished from Baltra Island moved to North Seymour Island in order for the iguanas to live better. The colonists confirmed that the iguanas had good health in 1934.

North Seymour has a dense vegetation that is home to the nesting Real Frigates from Galapagos.
