Would go again in a heartbeat Verified review
We had a great experience diving with the Aqua crew! The boat is smaller that some others, but very comfortable, and there's plenty of space for everyone. Food was great. Diving was amazing, nothing beats a huge school of hammerheads and dozens of Galapagos sharks! If you can, avoid lower deck "triple" cabins which are right next to the engine (very loud when the boat navigates through the night) and aren't well ventilated. The upper deck cabin we were switched to was small but comfortable, quieter and with fresh air, and we really appreciate the crew's flexibility. We dived with one excellent and one ok (a bit too conservative for our taste) guide, who rotated between the divers, split in two groups. It seems the dive guides on the boat change often, so you might get a different crew. Overall this was a fantastic week, some of the best diving in my life, and a very safe, comfortable and friendly boat.

Good budget optionVerified review
The Galapagos Aqua is a good option for low budget divers- the staff was very nice and helpful, the rooms and the boat are new and ok, the food was quite ok but could have been better. So as long as you understand it's not one of the luxury boats it will probably meet your expectations.
