Superyacht Galapagos

Established in 1998 as SAIL’N GALÁPAGOS, the business was the first yacht agent and superyacht service in the Galápagos. It created the opportunity for foreign yachts to visit the Galápagos legally, which has had a positive impact on the local economy.

Together with the authorities, the agency started building the regulations and processes to set a standard for yachts visiting the islands. Such involvement resulted in structuring the payment system and itinerary procedures – a new development that helped ensure a smooth visit and paved the way for similar agencies to operate.

The Galapagos Islands has an extremely high level of biodiversity, with many species native to the area. Superyacht Galápagos is dedicated to wildlife conservation, ensuring each yacht agency service aids sustainable management.

For Superyacht Galápagos, assisting and working with yachts on the islands is not just a business, it is a commitment to the Galápagos. Its team is available to answer all logistical questions and can assist with a visitor’s requirements before and during a visit to the islands. The company also operates under Superyacht Pacific and assists vessels in Panama and Costa Rica.

Customised itinerary planning in the Galápagos

Superyacht Galápagos can create a customised itinerary based on timings that suit the client, navigation sequence, expectations and client interests. The number of days the itinerary runs for is indefinite, depending on the desire of each client. The itinerary is based around the Galápagos’ natural and untouched environment and native species and includes the possibility of swimming with Galápagos penguins.

Permits to visit the Galápagos Islands

Every vessel, regardless of the type of visit, will go through an inspection upon its arrival in the Galápagos. This consists of an interior and exterior hull inspection which will determine whether a vessel can stay in the Galápagos Marine Reserve waters. Superyacht Galápagos can provide the relevant information, such as tax, service and fee quotes, to ensure each yacht has the necessary documentation ready upon its arrival in the Galápagos.

Provisioning service for visiting yachts

As Galápagos has strong regulations about what products can enter the islands, Superyacht Galápagos can provide a list of acceptable items. With years of experience in the industry, the agency understands the demands of chefs on board and therefore takes care in sourcing the highest quality products that are allowed to enter the island, as well as local produce.
