Endemic, First-class Catamaran, Galapagos Island Cruises

Endemic glides across the Pacific with remarkable stability and quiet precision, thanks to her state-of-the-art catamaran design. Sleek, contemporary and purpose-built for exploration, she offers six thoughtfully crafted itineraries that venture into lesser-visited corners of the Galápagos islands. Depending on your chosen route, you might climb Prince Philip’s Steps on Isla Genovesa, explore the wildlife-rich shores of Urbina Bay on Isla Isabela, or step ashore at Buccaneer Cove on Santiago, once frequented by pirates. Throughout your journey, an expert naturalist guide is on board to share in-depth knowledge, help you identify species and ensure you are always in the right place for memorable wildlife encounters and photography opportunities.

Life on board is as rewarding as the excursions themselves. Dining is a highlight, with talented chefs preparing fresh breakfasts, relaxed lunches and refined evening menus using locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. There is also the option to enjoy a barbecue on the Sky Deck, where you can dine in the open air, cocktail in hand, while watching for dolphins and seabirds as the sun lowers over the horizon.

Accommodation is contemporary and spacious, designed to maximise comfort and views. Suites feature either king-size or twin beds, ample storage, a writing desk and a safe, along with private bathrooms stocked with eco-conscious toiletries. Each suite includes a private balcony, individually controlled air conditioning and expansive windows framing uninterrupted ocean and island scenery. Interconnecting suites on the upper deck make Endemic particularly well suited to families travelling together, without compromising on privacy or style.
