The Expedition
Nomadic Scuba are grateful of this rare opportunity to bring you a full charter on board the Galapagos Master during the best month of the year to dive, October.
During October the Humbolt current draws the colder waters up from the Antarctic and with it an abundance of nutrients creating a banquet for all aquatic life to feast on. We will meet the crew at San Cristobal airport upon arrival and transfer to the boat for our 8 day/ 7 night adventure of a lifetime.
Itinerary Overview
Flying into San Cristobal form Quito or Guayquil, we will be met at the airport by the Galapagos Master crew and transported to the boat. The following 8 days will comprise of up to 18 dives and at least 2 land excursions to experience the beauty of the Galapagos Islands both above and below the surface.
Availability
The Galapagos Master accommodates 16 guests with 8 double or twin shared cabins. To maximize your experience Nomadic Scuba is taking two members of staff, therefore we have space for 14 guests. We are also hiring a highly experienced additional dive guide to maximize your experience and reduce the dive ratios from 8:1 to 5:1
