Seamless, Ultra-Personal Galápagos Expeditions

Built for just 16 guests, Aqua Mare is a Galapagos luxury superyacht that feels like your own private retreat, spacious suites (including a showstopping Owner’s Suite), Italian-designed interiors, and attentive, personalized service.

Each day unfolds as a true Galapagos expedition: naturalist-led Zodiac landings, guided walks among blue-footed boobies and marine iguanas, and effortless snorkeling with sea lions (kayaks often available for quiet bays). Back on board, unwind on the sun deck under equatorial skies, then dine on chef-driven Nikkei and Ecuadorian coastal cuisine paired with warm hospitality.

— Itineraries & Dates —

Two routes. Year-round departures.

Rotating 8 -15 days expedition routes explore either the eastern/central islands. Departures alternate by date so you can choose the wildlife and landscapes that fit your interests.

Wake to in-suite coffee and soft sunrise over the islands, no rush, just you and the view. Your naturalist team shares a simple plan for the day while crew set out your fins and daypack.

After a morning Zodiac outing, return to chilled towels and a light Ecuadorian bite before a leisurely siesta or a stretch on the sun deck. Afternoons feel truly private-yacht: slip into the Jacuzzi, choose a calm cove for an easy paddle by kayak, or join a relaxed snorkel with sea lions and reef fish. As golden hour arrives, canapés appear, cameras come out, and the sky does its work.

Dinner is unhurried, chef-driven Nikkei and coastal Ecuador flavors, followed by constellation spotting under the equatorial night.

With just 16 guests, this small-ship Galapagos cruise gives you time and space: wildlife up close, service that anticipates, and the kind of quiet luxury only a Galapagos superyacht can deliver.

— FAQ —

Questions, answered.

How far in advance should I book Aqua Mare?

Aqua Mare carries just 16 guests, so popular dates for this Galapagos luxury superyacht can fill 9–12 months ahead (holiday weeks even sooner). If you are eyeing a specific suite or a private charter, hold space early for the best selection and promos.

Not at all. Your naturalist team chooses calm sites and provides snorkel gear & wetsuits (sizes vary). There are easy entries from Zodiacs, plus options like kayaking or Zodiac coastal rides if you prefer to stay dry. Many guests try snorkeling with sea lions and turtles for the first time on this small-ship Galapagos cruise, it is designed to be welcoming.

The Galapagos are year-round.

  • Dec–May: warmer water, calmer seas, fantastic for snorkeling and beach time.

  • Jun–Nov: cooler water, nutrient-rich currents—peak marine life action (penguins, cormorants).
