Highlights of the Elite Yacht

Category: Dive

The Elite yacht is a luxury, twin-hulled catamaran, beginning Galapagos operations in June 2019, making it one of the most modern vessels available.
The design of the Elite allows for more space per guest on board, including integrated social areas that blend indoor and outdoor designs and experiences.
Each suite has grand windows for panoramic ocean views, private outdoor balcony, as well as a natural light frosted glass wall restroom. Beds are convertible in two twin beds or one king size bed.
Social areas include a spacious sun deck with Jacuzzi hot tub, exterior bar, alfresco dining, and there are 2 double kayaks for guest use.
Meals onboard are made from fresh ingredients locally provided from farms on the islands. Breakfast and lunch are served buffet-style, while dinners are a more formal sit-down affair.

About Itineraries

The seven-night cruise offers a total of approximately 17 to 19 dives, and 3 land excursions on every trip. The diving is considered ADVANCED as it occurs in the presence of strong currents, cold water and limited visibility. The diving also takes place from zodiacs.
Important note: The Galapagos National Park regulations require that all guests must carry their Diving Certification Cards for verification of your training. Photo copies will NOT be accepted. Please bring your certification card and log book(s) for verification of your dive training and experience.

About Cabins

It is possible to request the cabin of your choice at time of booking – just let us know your preference. Final decision on cabin allocation is always in the hands of the yacht operator.
