Overview

The flag of Galápagos islands is green over white over blue tricolor.
Zeljko Heimer, 14 July 1996

Galápagos is a province since 1973, before it was a territory. This flag is probably the flag hoisted for the San Cristobal Republic, proclaimed on the island of San Cristobal in 1851.
Jaume Olle, 8 September 1996

Today, Euronews broadcasted a relatively large news item about the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador. In one of the scenes, three flags could be seen, all 1:2 in proportions: the Ecuatorian flag, a tricolour that could be the flag of Galapagos , but I'm not sure because I could not write it down, and another tricolour with 2:1:1 stripes in white, green and blue, the last two colours in quite light shades
