Relaxed & comfortable, this dive liveaboard offers everything a diver wants. For those who want to catch a few rays of sun, there is a top level sun-deck and also an upper level bow area – each with lounge chairs. The upper level also has an outdoor shaded seating area with benches & cushioned loungers. There’s a good-sized interior lounge with plasma screen and a separate indoor dining area complete with cocktail bar.
Seeking a bit of quiet time? There’s a small library which also has an entertainment center for your enjoyment. The cabins are located on all three decks … 4 on the top deck, one on the main deck and 4 more on the lower deck
An indoor camera set-up station, with numerous charging points (US flat pin plug) and storage drawers is situated to the rear providing ample room for a full photography charter group.
Further camera preparation areas can be found on the rear deck next to the dive deck.
The dive equipment is on the the lower level aft deck. You’ll find individual set up areas, with under bench storage for all your personal items. Rinse tanks are conveniently located for washing dive equipment and camera gear, and there are 2 shower heads for those wishing for a quick post-dive rinse down.
As the Galapagos Islands offer exotic land animals as well as magical marine life, you’ll also have the opportunity on Master cruises to enjoy island visits at North Seymour, Santa Cruz or Isla Isabela for viewing the weird & wonderful creatures of this natural animal park.
The Galapagos Master embarks and disembarks at the island of San Cristóbal. Book your international flight into and out of Quito or Guayaquil International Airport in Ecuador. Most international flights arrive into Guayaquil or Quito after the domestic connection to San Cristóbal (Galapagos) has departed, making an overnight stay a necessity. But, in any case, we recommend that guests spend a night in Quito or Guayaquil before the trip to ensure making connections and collecting all baggage.
From Guayaquil and Quito there are daily domestic flights to San Cristóbal (SCY). A Galapagos Master representative will meet you at the San Cristobal airport and you’ll be taken to the boat for lunch, then a check-out dive. After disembarkation on Monday morning, you’ll enjoy a visit to the Interpretation Center on San Cristobal before being transferred to the airport.
