Highlights
The Galapagos Sky was built with divers' needs in mind to offer year-round world-class diving in the Galapagos Islands. Refurbished in April 2025, the Galapagos Sky has offered dive liveaboard trips in the Galapagos since 2001, and its captain and crew are among the most experienced in the region. Onboard, 16 passengers are accommodated in 8 private en-suite guest cabins, each featuring two twin beds or one king-size bed, a wardrobe, a mirrored cabinet, and marine-safe toiletries.
The Galapagos Sky liveaboard is fully air-conditioned and offers ample space for rest and relaxation. The main salon features an audio/video entertainment center and a separate dining area where Ecuadorian and international cuisine is served. Dining service is ‘fine’ plated, and beverages, including beer and wine, and a full bar, are included. The top deck is home to loungers for relaxing in between dives or stargazing in the evening.
Galapagos dive itineraries are 7 nights long and include up to 19 dives, weather permitting. Dives at Wolf and Darwin are the highlight of the trip, and 3 days will be spent here with the chance to see whale sharks, mantas, and schooling hammerhead sharks. There are also land excursions included to experience everything the Galapagos Islands have to offer. The dive deck features warm, fresh-water showers, and hot towels are provided after every dive. Diving from tenders makes getting to and from the dive site hassle-free.

Trip of a Lifetime!
The volume and variety of sea life- giant manta rays, penguins, sea lions, hammerheads, Galapagos sharks, mola mola, orcas, sea turtles, marine iguanas, red lipped batfish, and huge schools of a variety of fish. Both dive masters on our boat were very helpful, knowledgeable, patient and safety conscious. Their goal was for us to see as much as possible. All meals and snacks were superb. All meals had a great variety of food, and the chef was more than happy to prepare meals for guests with allergies and dietary restrictions. Ship was very comfortable and immaculate. Plenty of space for guests to spread out on the boat.

Trip of a lifetime
What an experience. From the moment we landed to the moment we left the crew of The Galápagos Sky were warm, welcoming, energetic and passionate about their mission - to give us the best experience. With only 16 divers, this is a relatively small ship but everything had been considered to make this a trip of a lifetime. The Galápagos diving experience is unique but can be challenging, however the dive guides were always on hand to ensure each dive was a success. If you haven’t been - go - and go in the Galápagos Sky, you won’t regret it!

Once in a lifetime
The dive sites were great, it was a good combination of land excursions as well as some of the bext overall diving around. The dive leaders were extremely competent and knowledgeable. The staff was some of the friendliest I've ever encountered on a ship. It was well maintained, extremely clean, and overall simply amazing.

The best liveaboard I've done
We were very lucky during these 10 days - hundreds of hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks, a tiger shark, eagle rays, mantas, and thousands of mobula rays, a whale, .... In short, I'm not going to mention everything but it was an extraordinary experience

A truely fabulous dive experience!
The crew were fantastic and really looked after you above and below the water. Their safety was excellent, which was reassuring considering how challenging the diving was. We saw loads of hammerheads, about six whale-sharks, an enormous tiger shark (up close and personal!), sea lions, dolphins.....the list goes on. The wildlife was awesome, but the diving is extremely challenging at times with absolutely incredible currents-onlyfor experienced, confident divers.

An Adventure to remember!
My highlight was seeing a whale Shark at Darwin arch; seeing 100s of hammer head sharks on the very first dive at Wolf; the ongoing diversity of the diving expereinces was fantastic! Galapagos is a unique experience both on land and in the ocean diving. I loved my naturalist ship cruise with my family members 10 yrs ago and then returned to complete the diving portion late in November no the Galapagos Sky for Liveaboard Dive experiences. The differences between a naturalist ship and cruise vs. the Diving; on a liveaboard are very different experiences and each unforgettable, unique and amazing. The Dives were wonderful and always, very interesting. This was my most challenging Dive experience, to date, but a must do Dive adventure! I prepared for a couple of months prior to the trip, which made all the difference. I did all 19 dives and this was the most challenging in my dive expereinces world wide. I am very happy to have been able to spend a week immersed in the ocean diving with in diverse enviornments seeing so much ocean life, 100s of hamerheads, a whale shark and an ocean garden full of ocean iquanas eating sea grass and moss, seals, tons of fish, large and small ells, we even saw a large Sea Horse and 100s of silky sharks, black tips, white tips. The other guests were friendly,

Spectacular crew, guides and dive boat!!
This was our best liveaboard experience. We have loved all of our dive trips, but this trip was spectacular. I was worried about the cold and the diving was definitely strenuous, but we we came prepared and were very well supervised and cared for. The crew goes above and beyond to help with putting on gear prior to diving, preparing amazing snacks and meals and keeping the boat clean and safe! Our dive guides, Solon and Natasha were so enthusiastic and dedicated to making our experience amazing. The meals were extraordinary and I especially liked spring down to dinner instead of the buffet style. We also had a wonderful group of divers in this trip which made for a very special time. One piece of advice, on the information provided before the trip, we read that we needed a GPS device and a sound alert device. We purchased both, but did not need to. The boats provides these.

The best!!
This is the very last item of my bucket list and it's worth the wait. It's my best diving experience ever. Do not miss any dive because every dive is unique. I used to say my best safety stop was Fiji, now it's Galapagos especially the last dive that we were in the tunnel of thousands fish. I think I said the best so many times but it truly is. I will never forget this trip. This would not happen if we did not have the very knowledgeable guides, the great crew service and lovely fellow divers.
