The Galapagos islands are justly famous for their unique flora and fauna, as well as the extraordinary diversity of habitats. They have become a destination of choice for discerning tourists who seek something more satisfying than a run-of-the-mill holiday destination.
However, until recently the marine reserve has been completely off-limits for sport-fishing enthusiasts.
Subject to strict criteria for qualification, licensing and practice, the Galapagos National Park and Port Authority (Capitania) have now endorsed and maintain close control of a new “catch-and-release” activity: “Artisanal Vivencial Fishing” which, for brevity, we generally refer to as “Vivencial Fishing”, or “AVF”.
