Ce comportement de nage permet à l'iguane de se déplacer avec grâce dans les eaux côtières peu profondes et même dans les zones de ressac plus agitées. La forme de sa queue joue également un rôle dans son équilibre et sa direction. Lorsqu'il navigue entre les rochers immergés ou qu'il poursuit des algues en profondeur, la queue contribue à stabiliser sa posture et lui sert de gouvernail pour se diriger avec une résistance minimale. Cette particularité réduit considérablement le coût métabolique de la plongée et prolonge le temps que l'animal peut passer sous l'eau, ce qui est crucial compte tenu des températures froides de l'eau dans le milieu marin des Galápagos.
Le reste du corps a également évolué pour optimiser la vie aquatique. Le torse, légèrement aplati et hydrodynamique, minimise la résistance à l'eau. La forme générale, compacte et allongée, du corps améliore les performances de nage sans compromettre la capacité de l'animal à se déplacer sur terre. Cette morphologie à double usage est essentielle, car l'iguane marin partage son temps entre les bains de soleil terrestres et la recherche de nourriture en milieu aquatique.
