Identical to its sister ship, the Galapagos Aggressor II is purpose-built as a Ecuador liveaboard diving boat and features 7 cabins, both Deluxe and Master. Deluxe cabins are on the lower deck and Master cabins are located on the upper deck, with superior views over the mystical islands of the Galapagos.

Socialising on these tours normally takes place either in the air-conditioned lounge complete with TV, DVD player, music system and computer or in the upper deck hot tub while taking in the spectacular Galapagos Islands sights. The lounge features comfortable seating, a lot of table space and beautiful wooden finishing. There is onboard internet (fee payable) for guest use and all drinks, including local beers and wines, are complimentary onboard during cruises. With no more than 16 guests on board, you will notice the ample space when gearing up on the dive deck, lounging on the sun deck and even when pottering around your en-suite cabin.

With the Aggressors' track record for high levels of service, you can expect hassle-free dive preparations, plenty of tasty food and a constant emphasis on your safety and comfort. To dive in the Galapagos Islands is, for many, the pinnacle of a long scuba career and on board the Galapagos Aggressor II liveaboard you can be confident that all will be done to make sure you have an unforgettable trip.

More Trip Details...

Cruise price per person includes: Cabin accommodation, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, drinking water, soft drinks, local wine and beer, transfers to the boat from the airport and hotels, dives (as detailed in the trips above), experienced English-speaking divemaster(s) (4-5 divers per DM), tanks, weights and weightbelts.

Cruise price per person excludes (mandatory, unless customer provides own): Return flight ticket from Guyaquil or Quito to Baltra payable in advance, restaurant meal on final evening, dive equipment (7 nights US$ 175, 10 nights US$ 260), torches, dive computer and insurance, Galapagos entrance fee US$ 100, transit card US$ 20. Unless otherwise stated, all the listed items need to be paid on arrival.

Optional extras: Nitrox fills for enriched air certified divers (7 nights US$ 100, 10 nights US$ 150). Unless otherwise stated, all the listed items need to be paid on arrival. Note: prices of items purchased onboard are subject to change.

How to get there: Galapagos Aggressor II diving tours depart from Baltra every Thursday afternoon. Guests fly into Ecuador and take a connecting flight, through Guayaquil or Quito, to Baltra in the Galapagos islands. Both Guayaquil and Quito have daily flights, although Guayaquil is recommended with cheaper prices and better-timed connections.

You will need to overnight in Guayaquil or Quito before flying on to the Galapagos. To ensure easy flight connections, a 2 night stop-over is recommended. On the return leg you will probably need to overnight in Guayaquil or Quito since most international flights depart too early to make the connection possible. The flight from Galapagos arrives in Guayaquil (and then Quito) in the afternoon.

We will place your domestic flight requirements with the Aggressor liveaboard who is responsible for booking the flights. We request your patience with this process since there are often waiting lists and slow confirmations of availability. You must inform us whether you are flying into Guayaquil or Quito before domestic flights can be considered. If you wish to extend your stay in Galapagos to enjoy land tours please decide that early in the booking process to ensure flight availability.

For more information see our Galapagos travel information section.

Non-diver rate: None.

Single supplement (if you do not want to share accommodation): This is optional - single travellers may choose to share a cabin or pay a supplement of 65% of the normal published price.

Dive clubs and group discounts: See whole boat charter rate below, equivalent to pay for 13 guests and 1 extra person can join in a Deluxe cabin free of charge.

Whole boat charter rate (per night): US$ 10,790.

Add-on package: Galapagos is a once-in-a-lifetime destination and the above water creatures and environments are just as impressive as below. You can extend your time in this nature-lovers paradise by adding a 3, 4 or 7 night non-diving liveaboard safari. These are wildlife and natural history tours around some of the finest locations in the Galapagos with naturalist guides, literature and presentations. Don’t just leave after a week of diving! Get the full picture of these incredible islands.
