Experience the essence of the Galapagos on an exclusive Day Tour of its National Park aboard our state-of-the-art Sea Lion Yacht! With various viewing decks, an air-conditioned interior, a hot lunch onboard, and fully personalized service, look no further than our Yacht to take you on an unforgettable journey of the nearby, iconic islands of the Galapagos National Park. With space for up to 20 explorers, you’ll be pleased to know that excursion groups average around 10 people. This is because the Sea Lion travels with two naturalist guides in addition to its operational crew.

Explore the Galapagos National Park

Exploring the Galapagos National Park is a wholly distinct experience from the one you’d get by simply visiting the towns of the archipelago. Not only that but, to enter the park visitors must be accompanied by certified naturalist guides at all times. So, what can you do if you’re staying* in one of the towns, itching for a chance to visit the Galapagos National Park? Hop aboard our Sea Lion Yacht! It comes with not one but two Naturalist Guides that are ready to take you on a fascinating expedition of nearby islands in the Galapagos National Park!

*Please note that clients that embark on a day tour aboard the Sea Lion Yacht do not need to be guests of the Finch Bay Galapagos Hotel.

Spaces aboard the Sea Lion Yacht

Our Sea Lion Yacht, it’s a perfect alternative to Galapagos cruises and is quite generous when it comes to the amount of space it offers our passengers; three ample decks with beautiful views, an air-conditioned interior (for enjoying your meal or simply lounging about), two bathrooms, and two changing rooms all within this stellar Galapagos day-tour yacht!

SANTA FE Island
