At 70 ft. this is the smallest of the vessels that are currently operating dive trips in Galapagos. Although she not as luxurious as the vessels listed above, she is well appointed for diving and most importantly, she has permission to dive at Darwin and Wolf at a price that is approximately $500 less than the Aggressor or Sky Dancer.

How many dives should you expect on any given Galapagos trip ?
Galapagos diving is not for beginners. What are the dive conditions like in Galapagos ?
What kind of exposure suit should I bring ?
Climate information (air/water temperatures - rainfall - etc.)
How do you book one of these trips ?
So why should you book your trip through a Galapagos Adventures rather than directly with one of these yachts ?
1. Do you know which yachts in Galapagos have a reputation of running quality trips and which ones don't ? Do you know which companies in Galapagos have received the most complaints from passengers and which have had the most passenger compliments ? Galapagos Adventures does !
2. It does not cost you any more to book your trip with Galapagos Adventures but there are numerous advantages. You will pay the same for the space regardless of who you book your trip with. Galapagos Adventures is paid a commission from the suppliers for the space that we sell. If a client books directly with a supplier, the supplier simply makes more money from the trip.
3. Galapagos Adventures represent numerous suppliers. Therefore they can offer clients a much larger variety of products and services in a wide range of prices.
4. Galapagos Adventures will earn their commission regardless of which supplier is used. Therefore Galapagos Adventures will direct the client to the tour which will best fit the wants and needs of the client.
5. Galapagos Adventures is familiar with all of the products that they market. We have personally seen all of the hotels, yacht, etc. that we represent. We know the reputation of all of our suppliers and we keep a close eye on their business practices. If we receive too many complaints from our clients about any particular supplier, we discontinue our business relationship with them.
6. Galapagos Adventures is one of the largest tour operators to Galapagos. When you book directly with a supplier, you represent a single client - yourself. When you book with Galapagos Adventures, you represent one of hundreds of clients, both past and future. Therefore you are virtually guaranteed to receive the best service possible.
