Liveaboards

8‑day / 7‑night expeditions with three full days at Wolf and Darwin, on a schedule designed for rebreathers and priced by one rule: a CCR liveaboard shouldn't cost substantially more than the open‑circuit version.

Two 100 - 120 minute dives a day
Sofnolime, medical grade O2, cylinders and bailout provided, just bring you unit
Next trip: Galaxy Diver III, August 2027. $7000 all in

Galapagos liveaboards for CCR, built by local CCR guides

A schedule built around CCR. 100+minutes bottom time.

On most boats, rebreather divers follow the open-circuit schedule and surface with the group after about 40 minutes. Here you dive twice a day, for 100–120 minutes each time. That gives you more time at depth when the hammerheads come in, and fewer ascents. It also means two unhurried builds and pre-breathes a day instead of four rushed ones.

Bring your unit. Nothing else.

Sofnolime, medical‑grade oxygen, diluent, booster pumps, onboard cylinders and bailouts are all provided. Nothing to source, nothing to ship, nothing to confirm before you fly.

The Boat: Galaxy Diver III

The Galaxy Diver III is a recently overhauled diving liveaboard, relaunched in late 2026.

16 guests max, 9 cabins across three decks. Double or twin, upper and main decks with windows, lower deck with portholes. Single supplement 50%.
8 crew members + 2 dive guides. Option to hire a private guide.
Plenty of space to unwind between dives. Jacuzzi on the sun deck, lounge and dining room on the main deck.
Starlink Wi‑Fi throughout the boat.
Individual gear stations, camera tables and rinse tanks, which matters more on a CCR trip than on most: your unit stays built on its own station between dives while we handle fills and scrubber changes.
