About the trips

MS ENDEMIC

Stylish and particularly nature-oriented catamaran experience in the Galapagos Islands

Continuously sailing the Galapagos Islands since 2018, the expedition catamaran MS Endemic will shine in a fresh new design in 2025 following extensive modernization. With eight panoramic suites and one single cabin with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors and private balconies, the MS Endemic can accommodate up to 16 guests. The staff-to-guest ratio of almost 1:1 guarantees personal service—especially thanks to your dedicated Cruise Service Officer, who will take care of all your needs, from menu selection to organizing excursions.

The architecture of the Endemic reflects the gentle lines of the volcanic landscape. Elegant curves, spacious viewing areas, and a well-thought-out design create maximum proximity to nature. The deck layout with Panoramic dining room and lounge on the Main Deck, the observation decks on the Upper Deck, and the Sky Deck as the social hub with Al fresco dining, hot tub, and outdoor bar makes life on board very varied. The same applies to the excellent cuisine, which will spoil you with seafood dishes made from fresh ingredients – either in the air-conditioned restaurant or outdoors.

The catamaran design ensures smooth sailing between the islands. The MS Endemic combines compact size with exceptional comfort, making it a truly stylish retreat amid the magnificent island landscape and unique wildlife of the Galapagos Islands.
