M/S The Beagle.

M/S The Beagle

Dinning. Bridge. Cabin. Aft deck.

One of the prettiest, renown boats to sail the Galapagos. The Beagle is on its own class in service, and comfort which turns it into the preferred for adventurous spirits. Beautifully decorated with teakwood and other precious woods is definitely a classy sailer, with two dinning areas, one inside next to the salon where next day activities are prepared and discussed and talks of the fascinating natural history of the islands are given. Also another outside with a sun canopy where most of the meals are served. Main deck has all the space you need to sunbathe or enjoy viewing the sea life or the fabulous scenery of the wild Galapagos landscape. When at anchor and on calmed seas, one can practice all kinds of diving from deck and besides you can use the "swinging rope". You could also do the coast of some of the visitor sites by sea kayak and enter into places you otherwise could not reach. Small groups and families will find this boat ideal for their exclusive Galapagos charters.
