Since her arrival in 1999, the Eclipse has been one of the finest boutique boats available in the Galapagos Islands. Converted specifically for upscale cruising in the islands, she was designed to meet the exacting demands of luxury travel.
A boat this size would normally cater for many more passengers but this generously proportioned ship accommodates 48 passengers for seven night cruises, providing spacious cabins and generous social areas, including a pool on deck, while maintaining the intimate feel of a small yacht.
Cabins: Fully air-conditioned, the spacious cabins have either a double or twin bed arrangement and well-appointed bathrooms with fresh towels provided every day and the complimentary use of bathrobes.
Amenities: There is a well-equipped lounge for relaxation and for the nightly briefings on the day's discoveries and the following day's activities.
In addition to the elegant indoor dining room, there is an al fresco dining area located around the jacuzzi, where you can enjoy the islands' spectacular scenery over a delicious lunch. There is also has a well-stocked library for quiet study and reading.
One of the most popular areas on board the Eclipse is the observation/sun deck, ideal for stargazing, whale watching or simply relaxing in the comfortable sun loungers. The ship also has a bar, pool bar and a boutique for the purchase of our exclusive range of souvenirs and Eclipse apparel.
