It was named after General José Villamil, the first governor of the islands. Most of Isabela's population of approximately 2,200 people lives in Puerto Villamil. The village offers a stunning white-sand beach lined with palm trees, an ideal place for lazing in the sun, swimming, snorkeling and surfing.
