Pacific Equatorial Countercurrent

Northwest of the Galápagos Islands, the eastward Equatorial Countercurrent crosses the eastern tropical Pacific. The archipelago was recorded by Europeans in 1535, when Tomás de Berlanga drifted there on his way from Panama to Peru. The region's winds and currents could carry ships far from their intended course.
