This luxury catamaran lets you explore the best of the Galapagos archipelago in comfort and style. Relax on your own private balcony or soak up the sun on the sun deck before exploring the unique islands.

This modern, twin-hulled catamaran has been designed to offer a spacious interior. Enjoy panoramic views from the sky deck, where you’ll find an al fresco dining area as well as a cosy, well-stocked bar.

Each of the suites comes with a private ocean-view balcony and floor-to-celling windows offering panoramic views out over the ever-changing Galápagos seascapes. Rooms come with a king-sized bed or separate twins, with a single cabin also available.

On board, guests enjoy three meals a day prepared using fresh, local produce by specialist chefs. This includes buffet-style feasts for breakfast and lunch, then an elegant outdoor dining experience each evening on the sky deck.

You’ll be well attended to by the 11 crew members, as well as the top-ranked naturalist guides who will lead exhilarating wildlife expeditions. Activities on offer include hikes across the volcanic fields, visits to albatross nesting grounds and snorkelling with sea lions.
