Luxury Live Aboards - The gateway to the Greatest Diving

Galápagos Sub-Aqua introduced the first and only superior tourist class live-aboard product on the market years ago, now we are moving ahead to better boats with higher service standards and amenities! As dive operators we offer a monthly diving cruise with the best dive sites such as Darwin and Wolf. The custom built size divingdeck has been designed by Galápagos Sub-Aqua and we equip the boat with two Bauer Mariner 3 phase compressor, tanks, weight belts with weights, and emergency oxygen; inflatable tenders are used to deploy and recover divers from actual dive sites. Sub-Aqua is also in charge of supplying the divemasters and naturalist guides III, as well as designing the itineraries.
