Sophisticated dining presenting a fusion of global cuisine and local Ecuadorian flavors, served via plated service and buffet arrangements with alfresco options.
The Galápagos Islands represent one of the most thrilling diving destinations on Earth, where powerful oceanic currents converge to create an underwater ecosystem unlike any other. Divers regularly encounter schools of scalloped hammerhead sharks numbering in the hundreds, whale sharks during the cooler season from June to November, and playful Galápagos sea lions that often join divers underwater. Marine iguanas — found nowhere else on the planet — graze on algae along the rocky shallows, while giant manta rays, golden rays, and green sea turtles cruise through the nutrient-rich waters. The volcanic landscape continues beneath the surface with dramatic rock arches, steep walls, and pinnacles attracting dense aggregations of pelagic fish. Diving here is generally suited to experienced divers due to strong currents and cooler water temperatures ranging from 16°C to 24°C.

We strongly recommend all guests to purchase comprehensive dive accident insurance and trip cancellation insurance before departure. Dive accident insurance covers medical treatment, hyperbaric chamber costs, and emergency evacuation in the event of a diving incident. Trip cancellation insurance protects your financial investment — not only if you need to cancel or cut short your trip due to personal illness, injury, or other unforeseen circumstances, but also if the trip is postponed or cancelled by the operator due to severe weather, technical issues, or other operational reasons. In the unlikely event of operator insolvency, cancellation insurance can also help recover your payments. Please ensure your policies are valid for the entire duration of your trip and cover the planned activities.
