Diving in the Galapagos is a world-class experience, characterized by strong currents and nutrient-rich waters that attract massive schools of hammerheads, Galapagos sharks, and seasonal whale sharks. Sites like Darwin and Wolf offer high-adrenaline drift dives, while other locations provide opportunities to see penguins, marine iguanas, and Mola Mola. Safety and organization are paramount. The vessel provides detailed briefings for every site, and the crew is highly experienced in managing entries and exits in the challenging conditions of the archipelago.

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.
A valid dive medical certificate or an accepted medical form is required for all guests on this vessel. You can submit a doctor's certificate confirming your fitness to dive, or complete and sign the medical form yourself if the form and operator permit self-declaration. If your answers or the operator's rules require medical clearance, a doctor's approval is mandatory; signing at your own risk does not replace it. Permission to dive remains subject to the operator's requirements. Download the form, complete it for each guest and upload the signed document in your booking area.
