Located in the Pacific Ocean, 972km (525 nautical miles) off of the Western coast of continental Ecuador lies the Galapagos Islands. Famed for the many endemic species and their studies by Charles Darwin, the Galapagos Islands are relatively geographically young, comprising 61 volcanic islands covering a total area of 4,500 square kilometres (1,740 square miles).
Naturally stunning, the Galapagos Islands make the perfect superyacht charter setting. Visit the remote volcanic island chains, and ignite your inner explorer as you discover the varied and wonderful indigenous species not found anywhere else on earth. The islands are also great for whale and dolphin spotting with many species to see.
The isolation and the privacy of a superyacht charter is afforded by the Ecuadorian province’s small population of just 25,000, with tourist infrastructure in 13 of the 61 atolls and islands. Some of the important yacht charter destinations in the island cluster include Santa Cruz, San Cristobal, Santa Fe, Santiago, Marchana, Darwin, Rabida and Floreana. The natural scenery offers complete serenity, that is sure to be memorable.
