GALAPAGOS CCR/OC AVAILABILITY
We specialize in tailored, CCR-only Galápagos expeditions, with limited availability remaining for 2026 and 2027.
Limited to just 16 divers per departure and supported by an experienced team throughout, each journey is designed to deliver an exceptional diving experience in one of the world’s most iconic destinations.
Straddling the equator and spanning more than 45,000 square kilometres, the Galápagos Archipelago is one of the most remote and biologically rich marine environments on Earth.
These isolated volcanic islands sit at the meeting point of powerful ocean currents, creating nutrient-rich waters that attract an extraordinary concentration of marine life.
JOIN JILL HEINERTH IN GALAPAGOS
In 2026, join us for a rare Galápagos expedition alongside renowned underwater explorer Jill Heinerth—a journey into one of the most powerful marine environments on Earth. Expeditions featuring Jill sell out for years in advance, and for good reason.
