MV Eclipse

The M/V Eclipse is an owner operated and managed boat allowing the more discerning traveller to experience one of the world’s greatest natural treasures in complete comfort. It is a mid-sized cruise ship at 64m (210ft) and accommodates 48 passengers. Each of the 26 cabins aboard Eclipse has a private bathroom, writing desk, large wardrobe and ocean view windows or portholes or with seaviews.

Eclipse staterooms are among the largest of any vessel in the Galapagos. They have either a queen or two twin bed arrangements and are equipped with an air condition unit and internal telephones. She has all the amenities you would expect from a cruise ship including a library/video room, a Jacuzzi, a souvenir shop and observation deck.

This is a super vessel that preserves the smaller boat atmosphere and maintains personal touches such as al-fresco dining for all 48 passengers. She offers complimentary use of wetsuits, snorkelling equipment and kayaks.
