Port grid
Puerto Baquerizo Moreno forms a small grid of streets along Wreck Bay. It is the densest linework anywhere on the island and the starting point of its main road.

The island
About this San Cristóbal Island map poster
San Cristóbal lies at the eastern edge of the Galápagos archipelago, some 1,000 kilometres off the coast of Ecuador. Its town, Puerto Baquerizo Moreno on the southwestern shore, is the administrative capital of the Galápagos province, and the island has one of the archipelago's airports. Charles Darwin made his first landing in the islands on San Cristóbal in 1835.
From above, the island stretches from southwest to northeast. The southwestern half rises into an old volcanic highland, where the main road climbs from the port toward farms in the interior. The northeastern half is lower and drier, scattered with small cones and lava fields. A San Cristóbal Island map poster shows the town's compact street grid pressed against the harbour, with open terrain beyond it.
In the highlands sits El Junco, a crater lake and one of the few permanent bodies of fresh water in the Galápagos. Offshore, the split rock known as Kicker Rock, or León Dormido, rises straight from the sea. Sea lions occupy the town beaches, which is one of the first things visitors notice when they arrive.

El Junco lagoon
A small crater lake in the highlands, one of the rare freshwater lakes in the archipelago, appears as a single rounded mark in the island's upland interior.
Northeastern lava country
The lower half of the island is dotted with volcanic cones and rough lava and has few roads, so long stretches of the map are almost empty toward the northeastern tip.

Why San Cristóbal Island
A map that means something
For travellers who flew into San Cristóbal, volunteered on conservation projects or spent a season in Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, this map holds a specific memory. For readers of Darwin, it marks where his time in the Galápagos began. Either way, the island's long, uneven shape makes a strong single-subject print.
