I spent 3 weeks on the Galapagos Islands taking a boat tour and spending time on the main land so I could dive. This particular dive the seal was very curious and came right towards me so I was able to take this image. It stayed for about 5 minutes nibbling on my flippers and swimming around our group before disappearing off into the blue. This is the most amazing marine life I have ever seen in one place with so much diversity under the water. It is definitely a place needing protection.
