Sky Dancer is a 16-passenger 100-foot custom designed dive live-aboard. Built in 2001, she offers the newest and best-equipped vessel and ultimate diving experience in Galapagos for serious divers.

The Sky Dancer accommodations include eight comfortable staterooms located on two decks. Each cabin features two twin beds, private head/ shower, mirrored cabinet, wardrobe, full length mirror, window view or port light, bathrobes, hairdryer, toiletries and fresh towels daily.

The elegant Sky Dancer is fully air conditioned throughout and features rich teak paneling and furnishings, a dining area, a fully stocked bar, and a main salon with an audio and video entertainment center. On deck, ample space is allocated for personal dive gear storage, a photo and video film lab, light tables, daily E-6 processing and open deck space for sunbathing. Divers appreciate our wide stern dive platform with fresh water showers, fresh water rinses, dive deck assistance and photo and dive equipment rental services.

Zodiacs ferry divers between exquisite dive sites and the anchored yacht. Most underwater forays are drift dives. Up to four dives per day will be offered on a pre-planned, yet flexible itinerary.

Enjoy the Galapagos in style with creature comforts that Peter Hughes Diving is well known for. After every dive, wrap up in a fresh warm towel, and snuggle into plush, terrycloth bathrobes found in each cabin.

A twelve person crew includes captain, a dive instructor/naturalist, a divemaster/naturalist, an administrator, and seven crew members, on hand to ensure that your Galapagos voyage is highly memorable.

 Diving: The Sky Dancer is for dedicated diving: see the report on diving in Galapagos by Peter Hughes and Bill Gleason. It is suggested that all divers have advanced dive certification due to strong currents, cold water, thermo-clines and large marine life. The Galapagos National Park regulations require that all guests bring the dive certification card for verification of your dive training and experience.
