Puerto Baquerizo Moreno is the capital of the Galápagos Province, in Ecuador. It is located along the southwestern coast of San Cristóbal, the easternmost island in the archipelago. Even though it is the capital, the town has only the second largest population: 5,600 inhabitants, mainly fishermen. The primary industries are artisan fishing, tourism, and arable farming. The town includes an Interpretation Center, but its touristic infrastructure is not as advanced as in Puerto Ayora. The city takes its name from the president Alfredo Baquerizo Moreno (1859-1951). Residents founded and still operate the Albatross Foundation USA.
