Galapagos Liveaboard Diving Cruises

Galapagos Liveaboard Diving Cruises

Explore the Galapagos underwater on a liveaboard: specialized dive yachts where you sleep on board and dive several sites along the itinerary, with occasional dry landings on the islands.

Each boat comes equipped for diving and is led by an expert dive guide. Below you can compare the liveaboards we work with and their reference prices.

Important Notes

Galapagos dive sites have strong currents and cool water, so most liveaboards ask for an advanced certification and a minimum number of logged dives. Requirements vary by boat, so ask us before booking. All cruises start with a morning flight from Quito or Guayaquil.
