Galapagos Aggressor III

The 100ft (30m) long, mono-hulled liveaboard that the Aggressor Fleet operates in Ecuador, Galapagos Aggressor III operates trips all year round. Normally for 7 nights' duration and, with the Aggressor's local experience, you can be confident your cruise will include some of the best diving possible, as well as an interesting full-day's land tour.

The Galapagos Aggressor III is a custom-built diving liveaboard boat, so space and convenience are evident from the moment you step on board. With a 16 guest maximum and 9 crew, you can expect plenty of room - in the en-suite staterooms and throughout the boat - as well as a high level of personal service in both English and Spanish.

Almost all dives are done from a dive tender, allowing easy access to all the best sites. Photographers will appreciate that nitrox is available and the dive deck features both a camera rinse tank and table. After diving, guests can warm up in the upper deck hot tub while viewing the spectacular Galapagos island scenery.

You can also relax in the air-conditioned saloon with a complimentary local beer and local wine, stay connected with friends using the onboard internet (fee payable), check their images on the onboard computer, or enjoy some music or movies on the entertainment system. Comfort, service and some seriously spectacular scuba diving on a trip to the remote islands of the Galapagos all await you, the discerning liveaboard diver on the Galapagos Aggressor III.
