Endemic

A first class catamaran, the Endemic offers a high level of comfort for up to 16 passengers in panoramic suites and is supported by a highly qualified crew including a dedicated cruise service officer and bilingual naturalist guide.

Galapagos, Ecuador
Endemic
  • One of the newest catamarans sailing the Galapagos which accommodates just 16 passengers

  • Enjoy snorkeling amongst the Galapagos marine life and take the glass-bottom kayaks out for a spin as you paddle past sea lions and iguanas

  • Specialist naturalist guide on board to answer all of your wildlife questions
  • All cabins have floor to ceiling windows which lead out onto a balcony, allowing guests to soak in the views from the privacy of their suite


With 8 rooms and a maximum of 16 passengers in spacious cabins, the Endemic is a great option when cruising the Galapagos islands, offering a great balance between comfort and expedition cruising. With spacious rooms and plenty of space on board to spread out, you will never feel like you are on a crowded boat when sailing on the Endemic, but rather a floating five-star hotel.

Wetsuits, snorkel gear, stand up paddle boards and glass kayaks are included for use on the trip. There is also a jacuzzi on the top deck to use while the boat is anchored. Crew consists of bilingual naturalist guide to lead you on excursions, a chef to cook you delicious meals using fresh ingredients, cruise service officer available to make sure your every need is met, and captain and supporting crew to make sure you are always transported safely to and from the islands. Every room is named after an endemic Galapagos animal species.

Although this is a luxury cruise, you will learn enormous amounts about the animals and formation of the Galapagos from the Endemic’s naturalist guide who has over 20 years of experience. This cruise is perfect for those that want to see all that the Galapagos islands have to offer, without sacrificing comfort and luxury.
