yes, they actually do, but not large distances though.
Some of the animals that live in the Galapagos Islands include marine iguanas, giant tortoises, blue-footed boobies, Galapagos penguins, and sea lions. The islands are also home to a wide variety of unique species of birds, reptiles, and marine life.
Galapagos Iguanas feed mostly in sea water, off the rocky coasts of the Galapagos. (Aka Marine Iguanas). South American Iguanas or Green Iguanas live in areas of dense forest and vegitation, and spend most of their time basking high in trees. There are also Galapagos Land Iguanas, just sayin'.
Some can and some can't. On the Galapagos islands the marine iguana spends it life basking on rocks and diving into the sea to eat seaweed.
Marine iguanas, uniquely among all lizards, can forage in the sea, feeding on salt-saturated seaweed and exuding salt via tears.
yes
Sea Turtles, Sea Snakes and Marine iguanas all live in the sea and are reptiles.

Galapagos Island is famous for its beauty and strangest types of species found here. You can find the variety of birds and animals like Blue Footed Boobies, Galapagos Penguin, Land Iguana, Marine Iguana, Flightless Cormorant, Galapagos Giant Tortoise, Galapagos Sea Lion, Magnificent frigate bird, Darwin's Finches, Galapagos Fur Seal, Waved Albatross, etc. Tourist travel here to explore the nature and its beauty.
El Niño significantly impacts the Galapagos Islands by disrupting the oceanic currents and altering sea temperatures, leading to warmer waters. This can cause a decline in nutrient-rich upwelling, affecting marine life and food availability for species like sea lions and marine iguanas. Additionally, the warmer conditions can lead to increased rainfall and changes in weather patterns, which may affect terrestrial ecosystems and species adaptations. Overall, these changes can disrupt the delicate balance of the islands' unique biodiversity.
Some of the other organisms Charles Darwin found in the Galapagos Islands include giant tortoises, marine iguanas, blue-footed boobies, finches (later known as Darwin's finches), and various unique plant species. These organisms played a significant role in shaping Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.
