| Santa Cruz Island is one of the Galapagos Islands with an area of 986 square kilometres (381 sq miles) and a maximum altitude of 864 metres (2,835 feet). Its English name, Indefatigable, was given after a British vessel HMS Indefatigable. Its capital is Puerto Ayora, the most populated urban centre in the islands. On Santa Cruz there are some small villages, whose inhabitants work in agriculture and cattle raising. As a testimony to its volcanic history there are two big holes formed by the collapse of a magma chamber: Media Luna and Los Gemelos.
