An elegant 16-passenger catamaran with spacious suites, premium facilities and personalised service in the Galápagos.

Monique combines the comfort and facilities of a larger ship with the exclusivity of a small yacht. Spacious suites, contemporary interiors and generous outdoor decks provide plenty of room to relax between island landings and wildlife encounters.

On board, you can unwind in panoramic lounges, dine indoors or al fresco, stretch out on the sun deck, or soak in the Jacuzzi while taking in ocean views. Large windows throughout the vessel flood the interiors with natural light and keep the islands’ dramatic landscapes in sight throughout your voyage. The vessel also incorporates innovative sustainability features, including electric tenders/Zodiacs for quieter, lower-impact wildlife excursions.

With a high crew-to-guest ratio, service is attentive yet unobtrusive. Combining generous space, excellent facilities and a refined onboard atmosphere, Monique is an outstanding choice for travellers seeking a luxury Galápagos cruise.
