A bucket list scuba diving trip.

Great trip. I describe diving in the Galapagos to my friends as the marine version of Yellowstone National Park. When you go to Yellowstone NP, you see elk, bison, grizzly bears, and moose. Diving in the Galapagos you are seeing schools of hammerheads, Galapagos sharks, whale shark, seals, iguanas, rays, mantas, etc.

A very unique experience that I can recommend to everyone at any time!

The time on the Aggressor 3 in the Galapagos Islands was unique! A really very friendly crew that was always ready to help. Great attention was paid to hygiene and cleanliness, and I felt very comfortable. The diving was endless fun, the guides were very eager to respond to individual needs, and I always felt safe. From start to finish a really successful trip, from which I go home with wonderful memories.

Very good liveaboard despite difficult conditions

We were on a liveaboard in the Galápagos Islands in September 2026 and overall very satisfied with the trip. However, our expectations were correspondingly high, especially because we had looked at many sightings from previous years at the same time of year in advance. Unfortunately, we had to deal with a strong El Niño this year. As a result, the water temperature of about 26 to 29 degrees was well above the usual 18 to 22 degrees for this time of year. The crew therefore adjusted the route at short notice and chose the so-called summer route, which is usually driven from January to May. Since we didn't know the alternative, of course, we can't judge whether the route was actually better. But this gave us the opportunity to snorkel with penguins, among other things, which was definitely a special experience. Unfortunately, the visibility was rather disappointing at most dive sites with only about 15 meters in some cases. Only at Darwin and Wolf we had much better conditions with up to about 30 meters. The expected large schools of hammerhead sharks also failed to materialize due to the conditions. At Darwin we could see about 25 hammerhead sharks, at Wolf about 8. In addition, there were always individual hammerhead sharks, some of which passed very close to us. We also had dolphins, various shark species, turtles, manta rays, eagle rays, golden rays and many other animals. Of course, we had hoped to experience the famous hammerhead shark wall and maybe even see whale sharks or orcas. After all, these were also sightings that had taken place at the same time in previous years. Nevertheless, you always have to keep in mind on such a trip that nature and animal observations cannot be planned. I would like to highlight the crew in a particularly positive way. Our two dive guides Lenin and Walter were really great. Before each dive there was a detailed briefing and we were divided into two groups of eight divers each. Walter is also an incredibly funny guy and has a lot of expertise, not only under water, but also about the Galápagos Islands in general. This enriched the trip even more. The ship, the cabin, the food and the entire organization also get 5 out of 5 points from us. Transfers and procedures were always punctual and professionally organized despite the many additional challenges. Unfortunately, we also had a medical emergency on board and therefore had to go back to Puerto Ayora after Wolf. As a result, the last two days were completely different than originally planned. Fortunately, we had two doctors among the divers with us, who did a really good job together with the crew. Even after the necessary change of plans, the crew tried to make the best possible dives possible for us. The only major point of criticism for me is the price. The safari is not exceptionally expensive compared to other Galápagos providers, but compared to a liveaboard in the Maldives, for example, it is significantly more expensive. If part of these additional costs actually benefit the protection of the underwater world and the Galápagos Islands, that would at least be understandable to me. However, I cannot judge whether this is actually the case. Despite the exceptional conditions caused by El Niño and the unplanned interruption due to the medical emergency, we would definitely choose the provider again. The restrictions were largely beyond the control of the crew. Especially under these conditions, the crew did a very good job from our point of view.

Recommended for
Comfort on board. Flexibility due to El Nino. Friendliness and professionalism of the entire crew.
