Highlights
The Galapagos Sky was built with divers' needs in mind to offer year-round world-class diving in the Galapagos Islands. Refurbished in April 2025, the Galapagos Sky has offered 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.

Dream achieved. Thank you, Galapagos Sky.
I really enjoyed my time aboard the Galapagos Sky. They ran a good program from the moment we reached the airport to the time of departure. You can expect great comfort, terrific support on the dive deck from the crew, tasty meals, devoted guides, and high overall quality of everything from rental gear to attention to customer satisfaction.

An Adventure to remember!
My highlight was seeing a whale Shark at Darwin arch; seeing 100s of hammer head sharks on the very first dive at Wolf; the ongoing diversity of the diving expereinces was fantastic! Galapagos is a unique experience both on land and in the ocean diving. I loved my naturalist ship cruise with my family members 10 yrs ago and then returned to complete the diving portion late in November no the Galapagos Sky for Liveaboard Dive experiences. The differences between a naturalist ship and cruise vs. the Diving; on a liveaboard are very different experiences and each unforgettable, unique and amazing. The Dives were wonderful and always, very interesting. This was my most challenging Dive experience, to date, but a must do Dive adventure! I prepared for a couple of months prior to the trip, which made all the difference. I did all 19 dives and this was the most challenging in my dive expereinces world wide. I am very happy to have been able to spend a week immersed in the ocean diving with in diverse enviornments seeing so much ocean life, 100s of hamerheads, a whale shark and an ocean garden full of ocean iquanas eating sea grass and moss, seals, tons of fish, large and small ells, we even saw a large Sea Horse and 100s of silky sharks, black tips, white tips. The other guests were friendly,

Trip of a Lifetime!
The volume and variety of sea life- giant manta rays, penguins, sea lions, hammerheads, Galapagos sharks, mola mola, orcas, sea turtles, marine iguanas, red lipped batfish, and huge schools of a variety of fish. Both dive masters on our boat were very helpful, knowledgeable, patient and safety conscious. Their goal was for us to see as much as possible. All meals and snacks were superb. All meals had a great variety of food, and the chef was more than happy to prepare meals for guests with allergies and dietary restrictions. Ship was very comfortable and immaculate. Plenty of space for guests to spread out on the boat.

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!

A truely fabulous dive experience!
The crew were fantastic and really looked after you above and below the water. Their safety was excellent, which was reassuring considering how challenging the diving was. We saw loads of hammerheads, about six whale-sharks, an enormous tiger shark (up close and personal!), sea lions, dolphins.....the list goes on. The wildlife was awesome, but the diving is extremely challenging at times with absolutely incredible currents-onlyfor experienced, confident divers.

Trip of a lifetime!
The Galápagos diving is phenomenal and the GalápagosSky itinerary and crew did a fantastic job at elevating my experience. The itinerary was designed to optimize our time spent at iconic dive site and they did a great job at incorporating land and zodiac excursions around the islands. Every single one of the crew members, from the kitchen staff to the Captan, made sure we were well taken care of and that all our needs were met and exceeded. Our guides Max and Enrique were very knowledgeable and excited about every dive and it made diving with them extremely enjoyable. I would highly recommend the Galápagos Sky and hope to someday return.

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!

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.
