Elegantly designed liveaboard made of wood. Experience for everybody from snorkelers to divers. Outdoor and indoor diving areas. Can be booked for a full charter.

Boat Interior
There are three types of accommodation on board the Galatea. Divers can choose to stay at the double cabin. They are placed on the lower deck, equipped with air-conditioning and private facilities. Also, there are two double cabins on the afterdeck. These bow staterooms are slightly smaller. On the main deck, there is a master cabin, it is more spacious and has a separate bathroom.
The liveaboard is not a very big boat, it can welcome only 10 passengers. It makes her perfect for a full charter even if you travel in a small group. Boat guests can spend time in the lounge area or in the open-air dining zone. Plus there is a shaded upper deck space, where passengers can enjoy the view or warm sun rays.

Diving Deck
On the diving deck, there is a full set of equipment that can be rented. There are 2 tender boats to get to remote dive sites.
