Highlights
The Galapagos Sky yacht was built with divers' needs in mind to offer year-round world-class diving in the Galapagos Islands. The luxury boat has been offering 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.

The summit of diving
The tops. Several 200+ hammerheads dives, a few mola molas, galapagos sharks and more fish than I've ever seen. And the crew was top-notch always lending a helpful hand with a smile. Starlink worked great for me as I had to work as well. 100% recommend

Great boat and crew
This was our second trip on Galapagos Sky. The boat is wide, comfortable, and nicely done inside. The dive deck is wide with plenty of space. The crew is very nice and helpful. Excellent food with a different menu every day. The dives in Galapagos are the best in the World.

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!

Hee Haw. Return to Galapagos Dive Trip was Amazing.
We completed 15 of the 21 dives offered and we saw huge numbers of fish. It was like being dropped into a massive aquarium. At Wolf dive site there were large numbers of turtles, sharks, hammerheads, sea lions, and more. At Darwin we had 3 different Whale Sharks interact with us. Overall, some of the best large animal sightings of any dive trip we have been on. This dive boat is TOP NOTCH, FIRST CLASS ALL THE WAY.

incredible vessel to explore the galapagos
Great food and best service I have ever received on a liveaboard. Almost all crew is on the dive deck helping people gear up, which is a challenge with all the thick layers, hoods, gloves etc. The crew delivered the cameras and fins to the pangas at departure and collected everything from the pangas upon returning. The crew helped us unpeel all the thermal protection and then rinsed and hung it up to dry for later. The also rinsed our cameras.

Absolutely incredible
The Galapagos alone are amazing, and aboard the Galapagos Sky, everyone goes above and beyond to make sure you enjoy every bit of it. The crew were great, the dive guides very experienced, and overall made an incredibly enjoyable week. I appreciated the flexibility of the guides and diving, and their ability to change plans if something interesting came up (i.e. snorkeling with penguins instead of another dive with low visibility). As advertised, these dives are NOT for beginners. The guides treated us as responsible divers and made sure we were equally accountable for our own safety, which is greatly appreciated. Overall an absolutely incredible experience I'll be talking about for a long time!

Galapagos Sky is Excellent Over so Many Dimensions
Galapagos Sky is an amazing experience. Everything is done right on this boat. Service is beyond excellent, everyone is 150% helpful at all times. Food was the best we have had in Ecuador overall. Boat is in great condition, well designed and comfortable. Dive sites are spectacular - it is the Galapagos for crying out loud! Especially Darwin and Wolf diving are eye wateringly astonishing. Great job....

World Class Diving with a World Class Crew
The Galapagos Sky is an exceptionally run and maintained ship. The crew sincerely makes every effort to provide for every need before you ask. Safety is of paramount importance. You arrive as a guest but feel like family. Diving face to face with more than a dozen whale sharks of massive size was definitely one of the many highlights. Of course it wouldn't feel like the Galapagos without schools of migrating hammerhead sharks. Even more than 20 mola mola in a single dive! The crew also was exceptionally helpful and careful with my expensive camera equipment. Gourmet dining and libations were the icing on the cake. I plan to return to the Galapagos Islands and will certainly be on the Galapagos Sky!
