Highlights
The Calipso liveaboard schedules year-round diving in the Galapagos National Park. Completely renovated in 2019, everything was designed to offer comfort and a fresh, modern environment. There are 6 cabins on the upper deck and 2 cabins on the main deck, each with panoramic windows, en-suite bathrooms, a hairdryer, individually controlled AC, a TV with hundreds of films to choose from, a safety deposit box, USB charging ports, and laminate flooring. Beds are doubles that can be converted into two singles. There is also a single cabin located on the lower deck with no single supplement, subject to availability. At 33m in length, there is more than enough space for 16 guests and 11 crew members on board. Social areas include an indoor salon and dining area, where international and Ecuadorian cuisine is served, featuring fresh local produce and seafood. The top deck has lounge chairs, a BBQ, a bar, and a hot tub.
Calipso Galapagos dive itineraries are 7 nights long and explore the world-famous Wolf & Darwin for the chance to get up close with whale sharks, hammerheads, and dolphins. Calipso also visits Marchena, previously only dived by a few scientists and filmmakers; it is known for having huge pods of dolphins, schools of Hammerheads, and Galapagos sharks. The large dive deck at the back of the boat has rinse tanks, hot water showers, dedicated camera storage and cleaning areas, and personal towels.

Great crew, boat, and trip. Somewhat underwhelming sea life
Enjoyed the journey with this fun crew and a bunch of very competent divers from all over the world. Didn’t see nearly as many big critters and life as I had thought we would, but the experience was positive and enjoyable.

Best decision of your life!
The liveaboard with Calipso was indescribable. The crew really does everything to ensure that guests have an unforgettable stay. Everyone helps, acts courteously and friendly. The procedures and briefings are always clear and comprehensible, while there is always enough fun and moments to laugh about. The culinary supply is worth mentioning, there are varied, extremely tasty dishes that are served appealingly. Diving in the Galapagos Islands is phenomenal and fascinating. The ship is spacious with many areas to feel good. All in all, it was the best decision to book Calipso and experience a wonderful holiday.

Above and beyond
It is absolutely a pleasure to sail with the Calipso. The cohesiveness of the crew and the service they provided is just at another level. Our guides were super knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. Chef should get a Michelin Star. The amenities are modern and perfect, definitely top class. If I’ll come back to the Galápagos, I’ll do it again with the Calipso.

Seeing the diversity of species in the Galapagos always has you waiting for the next exciting moment! Every day was fantastic! The crew went above and beyond to help us in every way, from diving, to cooking, to cabin cleaning and all the little things inbetween. Couldn't have been happier with our amazing trip!
