Los Gemelos, also known as “The Twins,” are twin volcanic craters that can be found at Santa Cruz Island. Testimonies to the island’s volcanic history, the craters were formed by the collapse of an underground magma chamber. The impressive view is only half the fun, as getting to the craters offers an adventurous experience all on its own. Walking through the forest that engulfs Los Gemelos gives visitors the opportunity to take some stunning photos and to discover the many flora and fauna indigenous to the land. Visiting Los Gemelos is a special treat for ornithologists, as there are numerous species of birds that can be seen in the highlands.
