Vessel information

Designed in 1998 by Italian luxury yacht builders, CRN Yachts, and extensively refurbished in 2021, Aqua Mare liveaboard is part of the Aqua Expeditions family - an operator devoted to offering intimate expeditions to distant parts of the world, and bringing families and friends together on voyages to remote destinations. The 50-metre Aqua Mare is the epitome of style and elegance, with all the facilities and furnishings expected of a luxury super-yacht. The vessel’s interior makeover, courtesy of famous yacht designer, François Zuretti, ensures Aqua Mare’s inner spaces perfectly complement the rich history of its destination - providing the ultimate retreat while exploring the dramatic volcanic landscapes of the Galapagos Archipelago.

This vessel is the first of its kind to sail the Galapagos islands, allowing guests to explore the dramatic volcanic landscapes, encounter endemic wildlife, and experience educational excursions in a way never before offered around the islands. With a maximum speed of 17 knots, Aqua Mare out performs any other yacht in the region, allowing explorers on board to experience the entirety of the wild and magnificent archipelago. Catering to a maximum of only 16 guests, Aqua Mare offers an engaging 1:1 guest to crew ratio, including two onboard expert naturalist guides, as it ventures into unspoiled sanctuaries to witness the beauty of nature and wildlife.

Onboard Aqua Mare

Aqua Mare liveaboard presents seven spacious individually-designed, sea-facing suites with premium furnishings, personalised details, and fittings worthy of royalty - including the largest owner’s suite in the archipelago. Aqua Mare’s stellar menu has been created by Peruvian chef Pedro Miguel Schiaffino, taking inspiration from the dramatic landscapes and flavours of the South American Pacific coast, as well as the Peruvian Nikkei style, to deliver a world-class dining experience. The vessel’s cocktail list also benefits from local influences, while the curated wine list pays careful attention to South American vineyards. Meals are served in the main deck dining room which is furnished with marble dining tables.

On the Upper Deck, guests can mingle over an evening drink at the Lobby Bar, before heading to the all-weather outdoor dining area. Above, Aqua Mare’s impressive sun deck is equipped with a barbecue area, an outdoor six-person Jacuzzi, and a workout zone. The highlight of the lower deck is the ‘Beach Club’ lounge, so-called because it is located at water level and serves as an extension of the outdoors.

Excursions from Aqua Mare

This vessel also carries a comprehensive suite of top-of-the-line, non-motorised watersports facilities, with tandem and single kayaks, paddleboards, and snorkelling gear, with two military-grade tenders on hand to transport guests between excursions. Rendezvous scuba diving excursions can also be organised on selected itineraries.
