UNESCO declared the Galapagos Islands a World Natural Heritage this archipelago is unique and one of the wonders of world.
Biodiversity thrived in a territory of volcanic material that emerged from the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean millions of years ago. Cormorants forgot to fly, iguanas learned to swim, turtles became gigantic, and sharks, mild. This is a place where sea lions show off their swimming skills and blue-footed boobies perform their elegant two-step mating dance right under your nose. The archipelago is located in the Pacific Ocean 600 miles, or 965 km, off the Ecuadorian mainland. Its wonders include impressive geological formations, old and new outcrops, various types of cones and tunnels formed by underground streams and currents.
Join us as we travel to the Galapagos Islands in 2026. This will be our 21st visit to the Islands . We have selected the “Legend” motor yacht for our travels. This yacht is larger than the motor yachts we have used in the past as some have asked us for a larger more luxurious cruising option- a Motor Yacht with more spacious cabins and the option of a balcony. With only a maximum of 100 people, this is the ideal way to explore these enchanting islands.
Along the way, Dr. Amy Butler will present her thoughts on the management of common emergencies.
