Cachalote Yacht
Galápagos, Ecuador
CRUISE OVERVIEW
Built originally in Vancouver, Canada in 1988, the spacious Cachalote Explorer was later transformed into a comfortable passenger yacht, creating an excellent way to discover the Galápagos Islands. The vessel accommodates up to 16 guests in 8 air-conditioned cabins, each featuring a private bathroom with hot and cold water showers. Onboard amenities include a cozy lounge, dining area, and generous outdoor deck spaces perfect for relaxing, enjoying meals, and socializing. Constructed to navigate the demanding waters of Canada’s West Coast, this charming First-Class yacht offers exceptional stability and comfort, ensuring a smooth cruising experience while exploring the remarkable wildlife and landscapes of the Galápagos Islands. The Cachalote Explorer operates 6, 8, and 15-day Galápagos itineraries authorized by the Galápagos National Park. Each route highlights the archipelago’s breathtaking scenery and endemic wildlife. Travelers can also combine the two 8-day itineraries into an immersive 15-day voyage, ideal for guests looking for a more in-depth, safari-style liveaboard expedition experience.
