Calipso Yacht
Ecuador
CRUISE OVERVIEW
Only in Galápagos can you dive with such a sheer abundance of species and so many sharks aboard the Calipso Naturalist yacht.
This yacht is the perfect companion to your Galápagos adventures with its unrivaled cruise itinerary, making sure that you won’t miss out on the best spots in the archipelago The high season offers whale sharks and is the peak of wildlife populations.
Completely rebuilt, every system and every inch of the interior and exterior spaces have been upgraded, from the meeting of dietary requirements to the professionalism of the crew members, we stop at nothing to make your time onboard perfect and stress-free.
During the high season, water temps are cooler and visibility is diminished. Low season has no whale sharks, but better visibility to see all the hammerheads and mantas that are obscured during high season. Water and air temps are warmer in the low season.
You will be amazed to know that it rotates each week between a standard naturalist itinerary and a specialized life aboard dive itinerary, offering the best of both worlds! The Calipso Naturalist offers 6 cabins on the upper deck and 2 on the main deck, each with 2 berths that can be used as doubles or twins.
There are also 2 lower deck single cabins available. With stops in San Cristóbal, Floreana, Santa Cruz, and Isabela you will be able to do panga excursions, hiking, walking on the beach very close to the sea lions, and snorkeling with the penguins, it truly will be a cruise you will never forget, as Calipso will stop at nothing to ensure a smooth sailing experience for each one of their guests.
