Nemo II is one of the most intimate ways to experience the Galapagos Islands. The sailing catamaran holds only 14 passengers, so can get up close and personal to the wildlife. The boat can anchor inshore and both seabirds and land birds will visit you on deck. Whilst sailing you will be closer to frolicking dolphins than any other yacht.
Nemo II has permission to visit places that 16-passenger cruises can’t. Kayak and snorkel kit are included in the price. Enjoy snorkelling in rarely visited places with the Nemo’s expert guides. Renovated in 2016, the Nemo II has double, twin and bunk cabins, all with private bathrooms, hot/cold showers, and air conditioning. The operation is family-run with over three decades’ experience of Galapagos cruises.
The two excellent 8-day itineraries are a complete northern/western week followed by a full southern/eastern loop. Includes three meals daily, after-excursion snacks and non-alcoholic beverages.
